Mechanism of chloride transport over the cell membrane (IMAGE)
Caption
Pink crystals reveal the mechanism of chloride transport over the cell membrane: Using time-resolved serial crystallography, the pink NmHR crystals revealed ion binding sites in the chloride transporter and pumping dynamics after photoactivation. This allowed researchers to decipher the chloride transport mechanism. (Graphic: Sandra Mous)
