A key approach to understanding the brain is to observe the behavioral effects of turning on specific populations of neurons. One of the most popular approaches to controlling neuronal activity in ...

Molecular Devices, at SLAS 2015, launched a homogeneous, no-wash assay to measure ligand- and voltage-gated potassium channel activity. The FLIPR® Potassium Assay Kit uses a novel thallium-sensitive ...

Lysosomes require tight regulation of their pH to degrade their contents. Researchers know that V-ATPase pumps protons into these little digestive sacs, but what protein shuttles the ions back out?

Lysosomes are the recycling centers of human cells. Larger molecules are broken down inside the membrane-enclosed vesicles. Malfunctions can lead to neurodegenerative diseases such as Parkinson's.
