Caveolins in rhabdomyosarcoma [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Cellular and Molecular Medicine, 2011
Caveolins are scaffolding proteins that play a pivotal role in numerous processes, including caveolae biogenesis, vesicular transport, cholesterol homeostasis and regulation of signal transduction. There are three different isoforms (Cav-1, -2 and -3) that form homo- and hetero-aggregates at the plasma membrane and modulate the activity of a number of ...

Caveolae and caveolins

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1996
In the past year, we have witnessed considerable progress towards an understanding of the workings of caveolae. Highlights include the identification of new caveolin family members, the characterization of VIP21-caveolin as a cholesterol-binding oligomeric protein, and evidence for functional interactions between caveolins and heterotrimeric G proteins.

Getting rid of caveolins: Phenotypes of caveolin-deficient animals

open access: yesBiochimica Et Biophysica Acta - Molecular Cell Research, 2005
The elucidation of the role of caveolae has been the topic of many investigations which were greatly enhanced after the discovery of caveolin, the protein marker of these flask-shaped plasma membrane invaginations. The generation of mice deficient in the various caveolin genes (cav-1, cav-2 and cav-3) has provided physiological models to unravel the ...

SnapShot: Caveolae, Caveolins, and Cavins

open access: yesCell, 2013
Caveolae, submicroscopic bulb-shaped plasma membrane pits, are an abundant feature of many mammalian cells (Parton and del Pozo, 2013). Caveolae and the major proteins of caveolae, caveolins (Rothberg et al., 1992), and cavins (Hill et al., 2008), are linked to a number of human diseases such as muscular dystrophy, cardiomyopathy, and lipodys -trophy ...

Caveolins

1999
Abstract Caveolins are principal components of caveolae, non-clathrin coated flask-shaped invaginations of the plasma membrane which are present in many mammalian cell types but are particularly abundant in endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, adipocytes, and fibroblasts.

Caveolins and membrane cholesterol

Biochemical Society Transactions, 2004
Caveolae (small plasma membrane invaginations) and their coat proteins, caveolins, have attracted the attention of researchers in diverse fields, including cell biology, cardiovascular and cancer research. The tight association between caveolin and cholesterol governs the biochemical behaviour of caveolae and is emerging as an important characteristic ...

Caveolae, caveolin and caveolin-rich membrane domains: a signalling hypothesis

Trends in Cell Biology, 1994
Caveolae, 50-100 nm invaginations that represent a subcompartment of the plasma membrane, have been known for many years, but their exact roles remain uncertain. The findings that the caveolae coat protein caveolin is a v-Src substrate and that G-protein-coupled receptors are present in caveolae have suggested a relationship between caveolae, caveolin ...
