Membrane Cofactor Protein (MCP; CD46): Isoform-Specific Tyrosine Phosphorylation [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Immunology, 2000
Abstract Membrane cofactor protein (MCP; CD46) is a widely expressed type 1 transmembrane glycoprotein that inhibits complement activation on host cells. It also is a receptor for several pathogens including measles virus, Streptococcus pyogenes, Neisseria gonorrhea, and Neisseria meningitidis.

The Bacterial Photosynthetic Reaction Center as a Model for Membrane Proteins [PDF]

open access: yes, 1989
Membrane proteins participate in many fundamental cellular processes. Until recently, an understanding of the function and properties of membrane proteins was hampered by an absence of structural information at the atomic level.

Protective effect of membrane cofactor protein against complement-dependent injury [PDF]

open access: yesActa Pharmacologica Sinica, 2005
To evaluate the protective role of membrane cofactor protein (MCP, CD46) on complement-dependent injury.MCP was separated by ion exchange chromatography on a DEAE sephadex A-50 column from pig erythrocyte ghosts. Its protective effect was tested in models such as cobra venom factor (CVF)-induced platelet metamorphosis and aggregation, human serum ...

A unifying mechanism for the biogenesis of membrane proteins co-operatively integrated by the Sec and Tat pathways

open access: yeseLife, 2017
The majority of multi-spanning membrane proteins are co-translationally inserted into the bilayer by the Sec pathway. An important subset of membrane proteins have globular, cofactor-containing extracytoplasmic domains requiring the dual action of the co-

Multi-heme Cytochromes in Shewanella oneidensis MR-1:Structures, functions and opportunities [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Multi-heme cytochromes are employed by a range of microorganisms to transport electrons over distances of up to tens of nanometers. Perhaps the most spectacular utilization of these proteins is in the reduction of extracellular solid substrates ...

Tissue factor residues that putatively interact with membrane phospholipids. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Blood clotting is initiated by the two-subunit enzyme consisting of the plasma protease, factor VIIa (the catalytic subunit), bound to the integral membrane protein, tissue factor (the regulatory subunit).

Various phenotypes of postpartum atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome: the role of genetic testing in determining prognosis. Case report

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2023
We report a case of atypical hemolytic uremic syndrome (aHUS) that occurred after childbirth in a patient with a history of numerous recurrent episodes of TMA with nephrotic proteinuria and impaired renal function.

Characterization of the Arsenate Respiratory Reductase from Shewanella sp. Strain ANA-3 [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Microbial arsenate respiration contributes to the mobilization of arsenic from the solid to the soluble phase in various locales worldwide. To begin to predict the extent to which As(V) respiration impacts arsenic geochemical cycling, we characterized ...

Cofactor-mediated conformational control in the bifunctional kinase/RNase Ire1

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2011
Background Ire1 is a signal transduction protein in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane that serves to adjust the protein-folding capacity of the ER according to the needs of the cell.

Implications of Membrane Binding by the Fe-S Cluster-Containing N-Terminal Domain in the Drosophila Mitochondrial Replicative DNA Helicase

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
Recent evidence suggests that iron-sulfur clusters (ISCs) in DNA replicative proteins sense DNA-mediated charge transfer to modulate nuclear DNA replication.
