Structure of cellular ESCRT-III spirals and their relationship to HIV budding
eLife, 2014 The ESCRT machinery along with the AAA+ ATPase Vps4 drive membrane scission for trafficking into multivesicular bodies in the endocytic pathway and for the topologically related processes of viral budding and cytokinesis, but how they accomplish this ...

High-efficiency receptor-mediated delivery of small and large (48 kilobase gene constructs using the endosome-disruption activity of defective or chemically inactivated adenovirus particles. [PDF]
, 1992 The Boltzmann transport equation is commonly considered to be the best semi-classical description of carrier transport in semiconductors, providing precise information about the distribution of carriers with respect to time (one dimension), location ...

The BAR Domain Superfamily Proteins from Subcellular Structures to Human Diseases
Membranes, 2012 Eukaryotic cells have complicated membrane systems. The outermost plasma membrane contains various substructures, such as invaginations and protrusions, which are involved in endocytosis and cell migration.

Retrograde transport pathways utilised by viruses and protein toxins [PDF]
, 2006 A model has been presented for retrograde transport of certain toxins and viruses from the cell surface to the ER that suggests an obligatory interaction with a glycolipid receptor at the cell surface. Here we review studies on the ER trafficking cholera

Atg8ylation as a general membrane stress and remodeling response
Cell Stress, 2021 The yeast Atg8 protein and its paralogs in mammals, mammalian Atg8s (mAtg8s), have been primarily appreciated for their participation in autophagy. However, lipidated mAtg8s, including the most frequently used autophagosomal membrane marker LC3B, are ...

Endosomes as Signaling Platforms for IL-6 Family Cytokine Receptors
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Interleukin-6 (IL-6) is the name-giving cytokine of a family of eleven members, including IL-6, CNTF, LIF, and IL-27. IL-6 was first recognized as a B-cell stimulating factor but we now know that the cytokine plays a pivotal role in the orchestration of ...

Oncotarget, 2015 Phosphoinositide 3-kinase (PI3K) and AKT define a signaling network that regulates important biological processes such as cell cycle, survival, metabolism and motility, all of which are disrupted in cancer (Figure (Figure1)1) [1]. Hyperactivation of PI3K leads to increased production of phosphoinositide (PI) species such as PI(3,4,5)P3 and PI(3,4)P2 ...

Yeast Irc6p is a novel type of conserved clathrin coat accessory factor related to small G proteins. [PDF]
, 2012 Clathrin coat accessory proteins play key roles in transport mediated by clathrin-coated vesicles. Yeast Irc6p and the related mammalian p34 are putative clathrin accessory proteins that interact with clathrin adaptor complexes.
