The membrane-associated form of α(s1)-casein interacts with cholesterol-rich detergent-resistant microdomains. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
Caseins, the main milk proteins, interact with colloidal calcium phosphate to form the casein micelle. The mesostructure of this supramolecular assembly markedly influences its nutritional and technological functionalities.

Chitin perception in plasmodesmata characterizes submembrane immune-signaling specificity in plants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The plasma membrane (PM) is composed of heterogeneous subdomains, characterized by differences in protein and lipid composition. PM receptors can be dynamically sorted into membrane domains to underpin signaling in response to extracellular stimuli.

Variational Methods for Biomolecular Modeling

open access: yes, 2016
Structure, function and dynamics of many biomolecular systems can be characterized by the energetic variational principle and the corresponding systems of partial differential equations (PDEs).

Domain Growth Kinetics in a Cell-sized Liposome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
We investigated the kinetics of domain growth on liposomes consisting of a ternary mixture (unsaturated phospholipid, saturated phospholipid, and cholesterol) by temperature jump.

Recent advances in mathematical modeling and statistical analysis of exocytosis in endocrine cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
open5noMost endocrine cells secrete hormones as a result of Ca(2+)-regulated exocytosis, i.e., fusion of the membranes of hormone-containing secretory granules with the cell membrane, which allows the hormone molecules to escape to the extracellular ...

Membrane microdomains emergence through non-homogeneous diffusion [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biophysics, 2012
In the classical view, cell membrane proteins undergo isotropic random motion, that is a 2D Brownian diffusion that should result in an homogeneous distribution of concentration. It is, however, far from the reality: Membrane proteins can assemble into so-called microdomains (sometimes called lipid rafts) which also display a specific lipid composition.

A feed-forward pathway drives LRRK2 kinase membrane recruitment and activation

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Activating mutations in the leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) cause Parkinson’s disease, and previously we showed that activated LRRK2 phosphorylates a subset of Rab GTPases (Steger et al., 2017).

Astrocytes and neurons communicate via a monocarboxylic acid shuttle [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Since formulation of the Astrocyte-Neuron Lactate Shuttle (ANLS) hypothesis in 1994, the hypothesis has provoked criticism and debate. Our review does not criticise, but rather integrates experimental data characterizing proton-linked monocarboxylate ...

Plasma membrane microdomains in aging and disease [PDF]

open access: yesGeriatrics & Gerontology International, 2010
The plasma membrane of eukaryotic cells participates in signal transduction and many other cellular events to maintain the physiological state of cells. In recent decades, much attention has been paid to membrane microdomains, called lipid rafts or membrane rafts, as signaling platforms in the plasma membrane.
