Quantification and visualization of phosphoinositides by quantum dot-labeled specific binding-domain probes

Journal of Lipid Research, 2012
Phosphoinositides (PI) play important regulatory roles in cell physiology. Localization and quantitation of PIs within the cell is necessary to understand their precise function.

The Roles of Membrane Rafts in CD32A-Mediated Phagocytosis [PDF]

, 2007
Membrane rafts are highly dynamic heterogeneous sterol- and sphingolipid-rich micro-domains on cell surfaces. They are generally believed to provide residency for cell surface molecules (e.g., adhesion and signaling molecules) and scaffolding to ...

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 ...

β-microglobulin amyloid fibril-induced membrane disruption is enhanced by endosomal lipids and acidic pH [PDF]

, 2014
Although the molecular mechanisms underlying the pathology of amyloidoses are not well understood, the interaction between amyloid proteins and cell membranes is thought to play a role in several amyloid diseases. Amyloid fibrils of β-microglobulin (βm),

A Brief Introduction to Some Aspects of the Fluid–Mosaic Model of Cell Membrane Structure and Its Importance in Membrane Lipid Replacement

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 ...

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).

Impedance analysis and single ion channel recordings on pore-suspending lipid bilayers based on highly ordered pore arrays [PDF]

, 2006
Ion channels are one of the main drug targets and are in the focus of various membrane biosensor applications and drug screening assays. The aim of this thesis was to develop and characterize a novel membrane system suspending highly ordered porous ...

Functional Peptides from SARS-CoV-2 Binding with Cell Membrane: From Molecular Dynamics Simulations to Cell Demonstration

Cells, 2022
Herein, we have verified the interaction between the functional peptides from the SARS-CoV-2 and cell membrane, and we further proved that peptides exhibit little membrane disruption.
