Direct visualization of Ras proteins in spatially distinct cell surface microdomains

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 2003
Localization of signaling complexes to specific microdomains coordinates signal transduction at the plasma membrane. Using immunogold electron microscopy of plasma membrane sheets coupled with spatial point pattern analysis, we have visualized ...

Molecular theory of hydrophobic mismatch between lipids and peptides

open access: yes, 2001
Effects of the mismatch between the hydrophobic length, d, of transmembrane alpha helices of integral proteins and the hydrophobic thickness, D_h, of the membranes they span are studied theoretically utilizing a microscopic model of lipids. In particular,

Daptomycin-Resistant Enterococcus faecalis Diverts the Antibiotic Molecule from the Division Septum and Remodels Cell Membrane Phospholipids [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Treatment of multidrug-resistant enterococci has become a challenging clinical problem in hospitals around the world due to the lack of reliable therapeutic options. Daptomycin (DAP), a cell membrane-targeting cationic antimicrobial lipopeptide, is the

From Membrane Composition to Antimicrobial Strategies: Experimental and Computational Approaches to AMP Design and Selectivity

open access: yesSmall, EarlyView.
Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are promising candidates for next‐generation antibiotics, acting through mechanisms such as membrane disruption and intracellular targeting. This review examines how variations in bacterial membrane composition critically influence AMP activity.

Membrane-Microdomain Localization of Amyloid β-Precursor Protein (APP) C-terminal Fragments Is Regulated by Phosphorylation of the Cytoplasmic Thr668 Residue*

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 2012
Background: Phosphorylation of amyloid β-precursor protein (APP) at Thr668 alters the conformation of its cytoplasmic domain. Results: Phosphorylation of APP C-terminal fragments (pCTFs) at Thr668 decreases membrane lipid binding.

Membrane lipid therapy: Modulation of the cell membrane composition and structure as a molecular base for drug discovery and new disease treatment. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Nowadays we understand cell membranes not as a simple double lipid layer but as a collection of complex and dynamic protein-lipid structures and microdomains that serve as functional platforms for interacting signaling lipids and proteins.

Mechanism elucidation of cell‐selective fluorescent probes

open access: yesSmart Molecules, EarlyView.
This perspective outlines five mechanistic strategies—Protein‐oriented, carbohydrate‐oriented, lipid‐oriented, gating‐oriented, and metabolism‐oriented live‐cell distinctions—for achieving cell‐selective fluorescence in live‐cell imaging. By classifying probes based on their interactions with proteins, carbohydrates, lipids, transporters, or metabolic ...

Tetraspanin CD82 interaction with cholesterol promotes extracellular vesicle–mediated release of ezrin to inhibit tumour cell movement

open access: yesJournal of Extracellular Vesicles, 2020
Tumour metastasis suppressor KAI1/CD82 inhibits tumour cell movement. As a transmembrane protein, tetraspanin CD82 bridges the interactions between membrane microdomains of lipid rafts and tetraspanin-enriched microdomains (TEMs). In this study, we found
