Yeast as a Model to Understand Actin-Mediated Cellular Functions in Mammals—Illustrated with Four Actin Cytoskeleton Proteins

open access: yesCells, 2020
The budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae has an actin cytoskeleton that comprises a set of protein components analogous to those found in the actin cytoskeletons of higher eukaryotes. Furthermore, the actin cytoskeletons of S.

Comparative Study of Curvature Sensing Mediated by F-BAR and an Intrinsically Disordered Region of FBP17

open access: yesiScience, 2020
Summary: Membrane curvature has emerged as an intriguing physical principle underlying biological signaling and membrane trafficking. The CIP4/FBP17/Toca-1 F-BAR subfamily is unique in the BAR family because its structurally folded F-BAR domain does not ...

Membrane Curvature: How BAR Domains Bend Bilayers [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Biology, 2004
An important new structure suggests the BAR domain is a membrane-binding module that can both produce and sense membrane curvature. BAR resembles a banana that binds membranes electrostatically through its positively charged, concave surface.

The BAR Domain Superfamily: Membrane-Molding Macromolecules [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 2009
Membrane-shaping proteins of the BAR domain superfamily are determinants of organelle biogenesis, membrane trafficking, cell division, and cell migration. An upsurge of research now reveals new principles of BAR domain-mediated membrane remodeling, enhancing our understanding of membrane curvature-mediated information processing.

BAR domain competition during directional cellular migration [PDF]

open access: yesCell Cycle, 2010
While directed cellular migration facilitates the coordinated movement of cells during development and tissue repair, the precise mechanisms regulating the interplay between the extracellular environment, the actin cytoskeleton, and the overlying plasma membrane remain inadequately understood.

Modulation of fungal virulence through CRZ1 regulated F-BAR-dependent actin remodeling and endocytosis in chickpea infecting phytopathogen Ascochyta rabiei.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2021
Polarized hyphal growth of filamentous pathogenic fungi is an essential event for host penetration and colonization. The long-range early endosomal trafficking during hyphal growth is crucial for nutrient uptake, sensing of host-specific cues, and ...

Membrane sculpting by F-BAR domains studied by molecular dynamics simulations. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Computational Biology, 2013
Interplay between cellular membranes and their peripheral proteins drives many processes in eukaryotic cells. Proteins of the Bin/Amphiphysin/Rvs (BAR) domain family, in particular, play a role in cellular morphogenesis, for example curving planar ...

Timelike Virtual Compton Scattering from Electron-Positron Radiative Annihilation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
We propose measurements of the deeply virtual Compton amplitude (DVCS), gamma* to H H-bar gamma, in the timelike t = (p_{H} + p_{H-bar})^2 > 0 kinematic domain which is accessible at electron-positron colliders via the radiative annihilation process e+ e-

Versatile membrane deformation potential of activated pacsin. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2012
Endocytosis is a fundamental process in signaling and membrane trafficking. The formation of vesicles at the plasma membrane is mediated by the G protein dynamin that catalyzes the final fission step, the actin cytoskeleton, and proteins that sense or ...
