What are nanodomains and what proteins do you generally find in them and how do they work? Why are they important?

So I work on the sort of idea that cells have a structure that allow them to sustain life.

So every cell is a bit like a city and they have different structures for life.

transports and different structures for making decisions, say the nucleus is a command center.

And similarly for signaling to take place, there has to be infrastructure.

So again, as I said, there are different types of signaling.

But if you take calcium signaling, what you have throughout the cell and particularly near the surface of the cell where it receives the signals from the outside, signaling hubs, you know, literally locations where there are sort of communities of proteins that aggregate together, talk to each other and allow signals to pass through or block them or to amplify signals.

Could you tell me a little bit about what research you were doing and what that entailed and how it's then led on to what you're doing back at the University of New South Wales in Sydney?
