By analyzing E. coli protein levels, scientists found a surplus of membrane shuttle proteins that may play a role in antibiotic resistance.

A Cornell University-led collaboration has uncovered the equipment that enables bacteria to survive exposure to antibiotics: ...

Further examples of multi-spanning inner membrane proteins that are imported by the carrier pathway include the core subunits Tim23, Tim17 and Tim22 of the inner membrane translocases. Proteins ...
