Life Under Tension: Computational Studies of Proteins Involved in Mechanotransduction
… and transform force: from mechanical motion of our muscles and bones to sound transduction and cell volume regulation, handling of forces is essential to life. Investigation of the microscopic machinery behind force generation and transduction in the cell has only become possible with recent …

Molecular mechanisms of gating and selectivity in transport channels
Transport channels and pores are of fundamental importance for translocation of molecules across the otherwise-impermeable biological membrane. As a conduit for the passage of material, specific membrane channels must accomplish the task of selective transport of molecules, while preventing …

Exploring the Dynamics of Mechanosensitive Channels Utilizing a Post Translational Modification Approach
… force is very important as well. The detection of mechanical forces underlies the ability to sense touch, gravity, blood pressure, and changes in osmolarity. The bacterial mechanosensitive channel of large conductance (MscL) and the mechanosensitive channel of small conductance (MscS), from E. …
