CFTR Review Page A website about CFTR, the protein involved in cystic fibrosis.
Cystic Fibrosis Mutation Data Base Database of Cystic Fibrosis mutations plus other relevant information on these mutations.
European Working Group on CFTR Expression The purpose of this website is to provide information which may be of interest to researchers in the fields of CFTR expression and Function.
Protein Structure of CFTR Unravelled Scientists have obtained their first three-dimensional look at a member of a large family of proteins that play a central role in the development of cystic fibrosis, can block the therapeutic effects of medications, and are also involved in a wide range of vital biological processes. The structure of this representative protein was solved by a team at the U.S. Department of Energy's Lawrence Berkeley National Laboratory (Berkeley Lab) and the University of California at Berkeley (UCB).
Did you know? The problem in type-2 diabetes is not lack of insulin production; most of these patients produce variable, even normal or high, amounts of insulin. The first stage in type-2 diabetes is the condition called insulin resistance.
