The structure and function of several important types of protein molecules mediated by single trans-membrane conductor signal transductivity.
Time of Update: 2020-10-26
In unstilled cells, MAPK is stationary, and when it receives the phosphatation regulatory signal of the upstream molecule MAPKK (MAp Kinase Kinase), the adjacent suline and tyrosine in mapK are phosphatized, thus becoming the active form of MAPK.

A new type of crystal structure of abc transporter LptB2FG membrane protein complex.
Time of Update: 2020-09-07
Huang Yihua's team in 2014 analyzed the high-resolution crystal structure of 2.4 E of the membrane protein complex LptD-LptE, which is responsible for transporting and assembling lipid polysaccharies on bacterial outer membranes, and initially clarified the molecular structure of how lipid polysaccharid molecules enter the outer membrane of bacteria (Nature, 2014).
