Cryo-EM elucidates the uroplakin complex structure within liquid-crystalline lipids in the porcine urothelial membrane
Abstract The urothelium, a distinct epithelial tissue lining the urinary tract, serves as an essential component in preserving urinary tract integrity and thwarting infections. The asymmetric unit membrane (AUM), primarily composed of the uroplakin complex, constitutes a critical permeability barrie...
