The PIP2 binding mode of the C2 domains of rabphilin‐3A [PDF]

open access: yesProtein Science, 2008
AbstractPhosphatidylinositol‐4,5‐bisphosphate (PIP2) is a key player in the neurotransmitter release process. Rabphilin‐3A is a neuronal C2 domain tandem containing protein that is involved in this process. Both its C2 domains (C2A and C2B) are able to bind PIP2.

PTEN Phosphatase-Independent Maintenance of Glandular Morphology in a Predictive Colorectal Cancer Model System

open access: yesNeoplasia: An International Journal for Oncology Research, 2013
Organotypic models may provide mechanistic insight into colorectal cancer (CRC) morphology. Three-dimensional (3D) colorectal gland formation is regulated by phosphatase and tensin homologue deleted on chromosome 10 (PTEN) coupling of cell division cycle

The role of phosphatidylserine on the membrane in immunity and blood coagulation

open access: yesBiomarker Research, 2022
The negatively charged aminophospholipid, phosphatidylserine (PtdSer), is located in the inner leaflet of the plasma membrane in normal cells, and may be exposed to the outer leaflet under some immune and blood coagulation processes.

A C2 domain containing plasma membrane protein of Plasmodium falciparum merozoites mediates calcium-dependent binding and invasion to host erythrocytes

open access: yesJournal of Microbiology, Immunology and Infection, 2023
Background: Invasion of red blood cells by Plasmodium falciparum merozoites is governed by multiple receptor–ligand interactions which are critical for bridging the two cells together.

DUF581 is plant specific FCS-like zinc finger involved in protein-protein interaction. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Zinc fingers are a ubiquitous class of protein domain with considerable variation in structure and function. Zf-FCS is a highly diverged group of C2-C2 zinc finger which is present in animals, prokaryotes and viruses, but not in plants.

A human polymorphism affects NEDD4L subcellular targeting by leading to two isoforms that contain or lack a C2 domain

open access: yesBMC Cell Biology, 2009
Background Ubiquitination serves multiple cellular functions, including proteasomal degradation and the control of stability, function, and intracellular localization of a wide variety of proteins.

Membrane-binding properties of the Factor VIII C2 domain [PDF]

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2011
Factor VIII functions as a cofactor for Factor IXa in a membrane-bound enzyme complex. Membrane binding accelerates the activity of the Factor VIIIa–Factor IXa complex approx. 100000-fold, and the major phospholipid-binding motif of Factor VIII is thought to be on the C2 domain.

C2‐domain containing calcium sensors in neuroendocrine secretion [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Neurochemistry, 2016
The molecular mechanisms for calcium‐triggered membrane fusion have long been sought for, and detailed models now exist that account for at least some of the functions of the many proteins involved in the process. Key players in the fusion reaction are a group of proteins that, upon binding to calcium, trigger the merger of cargo‐filled vesicles with ...

Transferrin receptor 1‐mediated iron uptake supports thermogenic activation in human cervical‐derived adipocytes

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
In this study, we found that human cervical‐derived adipocytes maintain intracellular iron level by regulating the expression of iron transport‐related proteins during adrenergic stimulation. Melanotransferrin is predicted to interact with transferrin receptor 1 based on in silico analysis.

Factor VIII/V C-domain swaps reveal discrete C-domain roles in factor VIII function and intracellular trafficking

open access: yesHaematologica, 2017
Factor VIII C-domains are believed to have specific functions in cofactor activity and in interactions with von Willebrand factor. We have previously shown that factor VIII is co-targeted with von Willebrand factor to the Weibel-Palade bodies in blood ...
