This study shows that membrane interactions can reorganize denatured proteins into β-sheet structures under confinement, using cell-sized droplets as a platform.

This study shows phospholipase D (PLD) reduces lipid and protein diffusion in membranes by producing phosphatidic acid, which affects phosphoinositide signaling and membrane protrusion.

The paper shows membrane-enhanced repulsion inhibits protein diffusion in cell-size spaces, with ATP further inhibiting diffusion while membrane waves counteract this.
