Cell membranes: Sophisticated molecular machines in action

Almost all living organisms have gate-like protein complexes in their cell membranes that get rid of unwanted or life-threatening molecules. These ABC transporters are also responsible for resistance to antibiotics or chemotherapy. Researchers have now succeeded in decrypting all the stages of the transport mechanism.
