Posted on May 14, 2015

Summary:

A new study done in Dr. John Rubinstein’s research group uncovers the structure and function of an enzyme called V-ATPase. The research is improving our understanding of the various processes that V-ATPase controls and can enable the design of drugs that influence how it works.

In this video Rubinstein explains the enzyme’s role in our health and what happens when it doesn’t function properly. His research is improving our understanding of the various processes that V-ATPase controls and can enable the design of drugs that influence how it works.
