Lck, membrane microdomains and TCR triggering machinery: defining the new rules of engagement

open access: yesFrontiers in Immunology, 2012
In spite of a comprehensive understanding of the schematics of T cell receptor (TCR) signaling, the mechanisms regulating compartmentalization of signaling molecules, their transient interactions and rearrangement of membrane structures initiated upon ...

A novel biotinylated lipid raft reporter for electron microscopic imaging of plasma membrane microdomains

open access: yesJournal of Lipid Research, 2012
The submicroscopic spatial organization of cell surface receptors and plasma membrane signaling molecules is readily characterized by electron microscopy (EM) via immunogold labeling of plasma membrane sheets.

Raft microdomain localized in the luminal leaflet of inner membrane complex of living Toxoplasma gondii

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Cell Biology, 2021
Membrane microdomains or rafts, sterol- and sphingolipid-rich microdomains in the plasma membrane have been studied extensively in mammalian cells. Recently, rafts were found to mediate virulence in a variety of parasites, including Toxoplasma gondii ...

Relationship between membrane phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and receptor-mediated inhibition of native neuronal M channels [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
The relationship between receptor-induced membrane phosphatidylinositol-4'5'-bisphosphate (PIP2) hydrolysis and M-current inhibition was assessed in single-dissociated rat sympathetic neurons by simultaneous or parallel recording of membrane current and ...

Cholesterol-Dependent γ-Secretase Activity in Buoyant Cholesterol-Rich Membrane Microdomains

open access: yesNeurobiology of Disease, 2002
Buoyant membrane fractions containing presenilin 1 (PS1), an essential component of the γ-secretase complex, and APP CTFβ, a γ-secretase substrate, can be isolated from cultured cells and brain by several different fractionation procedures that are ...

A conserved morphogenetic mechanism for epidermal ensheathment of nociceptive sensory neurites. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Interactions between epithelial cells and neurons influence a range of sensory modalities including taste, touch, and smell. Vertebrate and invertebrate epidermal cells ensheath peripheral arbors of somatosensory neurons, including nociceptors, yet the ...
