Scientists at Sweden's Linköping University have developed a new tool to tackle these risky remnants of malignant tumors, demonstrating how an ion pump can take highly effective chemotherapy ...

Researchers at Linköping University, Sweden, and the Medical University of Graz, Austria, have shown in cells in culture that an ion pump can deliver drugs more accurately, which results in less ...

Here we report a new functional class of a microbial rhodopsin, a light-driven sodium ion pump. We discover that the marine flavobacterium Krokinobacter eikastus possesses two rhodopsins ...

The calcium pump is a close cousin of the sodium-potassium pump Skou worked on, and they use a similar pumping mechanism. Skou's work earned him a Nobel Prize in chemistry in 1997.
