Hydrophobic Mismatch Controls the Mode of Membrane-Mediated Interactions of Transmembrane Peptides
Membranes, 2022 Various cellular processes require the concerted cooperative action of proteins. The possibility for such synchronization implies the occurrence of specific long-range interactions between the involved protein participants.

Membrane-Mediated Interactions Between Protein Inclusions
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021 Integral or peripheral membrane proteins, or protein oligomers often get close to each other on cell membranes and carry out biological tasks in a collective manner.

Phospholipid Preparations to Characterize Protein–Lipid Interactions In Vitro
Bio-Protocol, 2023 The lipid bilayers of the cell are composed of various lipid classes and species. These engage in cell signaling and regulation by recruiting cytosolic proteins to the membrane and interacting with membrane-embedded proteins to alternate their activity ...

Membrane curvature sorts lipids [PDF]
The EMBO Reports, 2005 The enrichment of sphingolipids and cholesterol in the mammalian plasma membrane, and unsaturated phosphatidylcholine (PC) in the endoplasmic reticulum, requires lipid sorting in the Golgi apparatus. Most sphingolipids are synthesized in the Golgi lumen (Holthuis & Levine, 2005).

Membranes, 2021 Early cell membrane models placed most proteins external to lipid bilayers in trimolecular structures or as modular lipoprotein units. These thermodynamically untenable structures did not allow lipid lateral movements independent of membrane proteins ...
