Inducible intracellular membranes: molecular aspects and emerging applications [PDF]
Microbial Cell Factories, 2020 Membrane remodeling and phospholipid biosynthesis are normally tightly regulated to maintain the shape and function of cells. Indeed, different physiological mechanisms ensure a precise coordination between de novo phospholipid biosynthesis and ...

Ectopic Neo-Formed Intracellular Membranes in Escherichia coli: A Response to Membrane Protein-Induced Stress Involving Membrane Curvature and Domains [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2018 Bacterial cytoplasmic membrane stress induced by the overexpression of membrane proteins at high levels can lead to formation of ectopic intracellular membranes.

Monitoring voltage fluctuations of intracellular membranes [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2018 In eukaryotic cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest continuous membrane-enclosed network which surrounds a single lumen. Using a new genetically encoded voltage indicator (GEVI), we applied the patch clamp technique to cultured HEK293 ...

Recruitment of clathrin to intracellular membranes is sufficient for vesicle formation [PDF]
eLife, 2022 The formation of a clathrin-coated vesicle (CCV) is a major membrane remodeling process that is crucial for membrane traffic in cells. Besides clathrin, these vesicles contain at least 100 different proteins although it is unclear how many are essential ...

Mutual Mobile Membranes with Timers [PDF]
Electronic Proceedings in Theoretical Computer Science, 2009 A feature of current membrane systems is the fact that objects and membranes are persistent. However, this is not true in the real world. In fact, cells and intracellular proteins have a well-defined lifetime.

Proteins Related to the Type I Secretion System Are Associated with Secondary SecA_DEAD Domain Proteins in Some Species of Planctomycetes, Verrucomicrobia, Proteobacteria, Nitrospirae and Chlorobi. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 A number of bacteria belonging to the PVC (Planctomycetes-Verrucomicrobia-Chlamydiae) super-phylum contain unusual ribosome-bearing intracellular membranes. The evolutionary origins and functions of these membranes are unknown.
