A New XFELs Technology To Measure The Structure Of Membrane Proteins

new method has been created by the Australian researchers in order to measure the structure of membrane proteins despite being damaged when using X-ray free-electron lasers (XFELs), that discovery will aid in tracking the improvement of targeted drugs using new XFELs technology.

Today, about 70% of drugs in the market rely on the activity of membrane proteins, which are complex molecules that form the membranes of the cells in our body. The main problem for the design of new pharmaceuticals, often defined as “membrane protein problem,” is because they do not form the crystals necessary to enable further investigation of the structure to design better drugs.
