• A molecular perspective on membrane fission mechanisms in Vacuolar Protein Sorting 

  GOPAN, SHILPA (2025-06-21)

  The evolutionarily conserved vacuolar protein sorting (VPS) pathway prescribes a mechanism by which newly synthesized proteins are delivered from the Golgi apparatus to the lysosomes/vacuole and back via endosomes. Originally ...
• Understanding the molecular mechanism of mammalian prion protein misfolding 

  PAL, SUMAN (2025-06)

  Proteins exist as ensembles of multiple states within a free energy landscape, where partially unfolded forms (PUFs) are present alongside the stable, folded native state (N). These PUFs arise through protein dynamics and ...
