The TMEM16 family of membrane proteins was hailed as representing the elusive calcium-activated chloride channels. However, the majority of the family members turned out to be scramblases, proteins ...
The architecture of a new membrane protein family Membrane proteins of the TMEM16 family show a unique functional breadth, since they include, besides ion channels, which are essential for regulating ...

Calcium is a ubiquitous signalling ion. Certain events, such as the activation of cell-surface receptors by hormones or neurotransmitter molecules, can lead to a rapid increase in the intracellular ...
Membranes are thin walls that surround cells and protect their interior from the environment. These walls are composed of phospholipids, which, due to their amphiphilic nature, form bilayers with ...
