Synthetic Proteins Help Solve Structure of the Fluoride Ion Channel

Through the use of custom-engineered synthetic proteins known as monobodies, scientists have now resolved the atomic structure of the fluoride ion. The study sheds light on the evolution of these channels and enables new approaches to modify their function, with potential applications such as the development of novel antibiotics.
