Physical Properties and Reactivity of Microdomains in Phosphatidylinositol-Containing Supported Lipid Bilayer

open access: yesMembranes, 2021
We characterized the size, distribution, and fluidity of microdomains in a lipid bilayer containing phosphatidylinositol (PI) and revealed their roles during the two-dimensional assembly of a membrane deformation protein (FBP17).

Lipid Raft Microdomains [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Experimental Medicine, 2002
Spatiotemporal aspects of filovirus entry and release are poorly understood. Lipid rafts act as functional platforms for multiple cellular signaling and trafficking processes. Here, we report the compartmentalization of Ebola and Marburg viral proteins within lipid rafts during viral assembly and budding.

Lipid Microdomains in Cell Nucleus [PDF]

open access: yesMolecular Biology of the Cell, 2008
It is known that nuclear lipids play a role in proliferation, differentiation, and apoptotic process. Cellular nuclei contain high levels of phosphatidylcholine and sphingomyelin, which are partially linked with cholesterol and proteins to form lipid–protein complexes.

Function of Platelet Glycosphingolipid Microdomains/Lipid Rafts [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2020
Lipid rafts are dynamic assemblies of glycosphingolipids, sphingomyelin, cholesterol, and specific proteins which are stabilized into platforms involved in the regulation of vital cellular processes. The rafts at the cell surface play important functions in signal transduction.

Reversible Dissolution of Microdomains in Detergent-Resistant Membranes at Physiological Temperature. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The formation of lipid microdomains ("rafts") is presumed to play an important role in various cellular functions, but their nature remains controversial.

Microdomain forming proteins in oncogenesis

open access: yesУспехи молекулярной онкологии, 2016
Lipid rafts are lateral assembles of cholesterol, sphingomyelin, glicosphingolipids and specific proteins within cell plasma membrane. These microdomains are involved into a number of important cellular processes including membrane rearrangement, protein

Anionic lipids enriched at the ExPortal of Streptococcus pyogenes [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
The ExPortal of Streptococcus pyogenes is a membrane microdomain dedicated to the secretion and folding of proteins. We investigated the lipid composition of the ExPortal by examining the distribution of anionic membrane phospholipids. Staining with 10-N-

Lipid‐Free Apolipoprotein A‐I Reduces Progression of Atherosclerosis by Mobilizing Microdomain Cholesterol and Attenuating the Number of CD131 Expressing Cells: Monitoring Cholesterol Homeostasis Using the Cellular Ester to Total Cholesterol Ratio

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2016
BackgroundAtherosclerosis is a chronic inflammatory disorder whose development is inversely correlated with high‐density lipoprotein concentration. Current therapies involve pharmaceuticals that significantly elevate plasma high‐density lipoprotein ...

Vacuolar transport and function of Saccharomyces cerevisiae sterol ester hydrolase Tgl1. [PDF]

open access: yesFEBS Lett
Tgl1, one of yeast sterol ester hydrolases, had been found on the lipid droplets where sterol esters are mainly stored. This study revealed that Tgl1 is transported into the vacuole depending on the ESCRT‐I–III complex, and that it exhibits intra‐vacuolar sterol ester hydrolase activity.

Membrane microdomains in hepatocytes: potential target areas for proteins involved in canalicular bile secretion

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2005
The formation of hepatic bile requires that water be transported across liver epithelia. Rat hepatocytes express three aquaporins (AQPs): AQP8, AQP9, and AQP0. Recognizing that cholesterol and sphingolipids are thought to promote the assembly of proteins
