A research team led by University of Illinois at Chicago chemistry professor Wonhwa Cho is learning how the fat molecules within cell membranes help the cells' signaling proteins to assemble and function. Their initial findings, reported in Molecular Cell, suggest the lipids play an important role in regulating cellular protein interactions.
