SCIDAC 2009: SCIENTIFIC DISCOVERY THROUGH ADVANCED COMPUTING, 180 Art. No. UNSP 012026, 2009

This study explores the mechanism of pore creation in cellular membranes by MccE92 bacterial proteins. The results of this study are then compared with the mechanism of alpha-synuclein (aS)-based pore formation in mammalian cells, and its role in Parkinson's disease.
