How proteins move lipids and lipids move proteins [PDF]
, 2001 Cells determine the bilayer characteristics of different membranes by tightly controlling their lipid composition. Local changes in the physical properties of bilayers, in turn, allow membrane deformation, and facilitate vesicle budding and fusion ...

Introducing Membrane Charge and Membrane Potential to T Cell Signaling
Frontiers in Immunology, 2017 While membrane models now include the heterogeneous distribution of lipids, the impact of membrane charges on regulating the association of proteins with the plasma membrane is often overlooked.

Membrane Lipids and the Conformations of Membrane Proteins [PDF]
The Journal of General Physiology, 1969 The general relations between protein conformation and the optical activity of peptide chromophores are outlined and applied to the analysis of the optical rotatory dispersion and circular dichroism of the plasma membranes of human erythrocytes and Ehrlich ascites carcinoma cells.

Manipulation of Senescence of Plants to Improve Biotic Stress Resistance
Life, 2022 The physiological state, i.e., senescence or juvenility, of plants and plant organs can have strong effect on their reactions to pathogen attacks. This effect is mainly expressed as changes in the severity of disease symptoms.

Lipid-itraconazole Interaction in Lipid Model Membranes
Journal of Pharmacy and Pharmacology, 1991 Abstract Itraconazole, a lipophilic, fungal sterol-biosynthesis inhibitor, does not disturb membrane organization parameters measured by differential scanning calorimetry and infrared spectroscopy. Conformational analysis studies suggest that the molecular volume and the position of itraconazole in the lipid membrane is similar to that ...

Tracking Membrane Protein Dynamics in Real Time [PDF]
, 2021 Membrane proteins govern critical cellular processes and are central to human health and associated disease. Understanding of membrane protein function is obscured by the vast ranges of structural dynamics-both in the spatial and time regime-displayed in
