Stress driven changes in the kinetics of bilayer embedded proteins: a membrane spandex and a voltage-gated sodium channel

Bilayer embedded proteins are affected by stress. This general affirmation is, in this thesis, embodied by two types of proteins: membrane spandex and voltage-gated sodium channels. In this work, we essentially explore, using methods from physics, the theoretical consequences of ideas drawn from exp...
