Enigmatic ring carriers: Göttingen researchers uncover the structural secret of the ferline
Researchers from the Göttingen Cluster of Excellence Mutliscale Bioimaging (MBExC) have uncovered the 3D structure of the membrane proteins myoferlin and dysferlin using high-resolution cryo-electron microscopy. The findings enable new approaches for the development of targeted drugs for the treatment of diseases such as muscle atrophy, hearing disorders and certain
