Sea Anemones, Actinoporins, and Cholesterol

Sea Anemones, Actinoporins, and Cholesterol

Spanish or Spanish-speaking scientists represent a remarkably populated group within the scientific community studying pore-forming proteins. Some of these scientists, ourselves included, focus on the study of actinoporins, a fascinating group of metamorphic pore-forming proteins produced within the...
