The road not taken: Less traveled roads from the TGN to the plasma membrane [PDF]
, 2015 : The trans-Golgi network functions in the distribution of cargo into different transport vesicles that are destined to endosomes, lysosomes and the plasma membrane. Over the years, it has become clear that more than one transport pathway promotes plasma

Lipid environment determines the drug-stimulated ATPase activity of P-glycoprotein
Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2023 P-glycoprotein (Pgp) is a multidrug transporter that uses the energy from ATP binding and hydrolysis to export from cells a wide variety of hydrophobic compounds including anticancer drugs, and mediates the bioavailability and pharmacokinetics of many ...

A morphological view on mitochondrial protein targeting [PDF]
, 1994 Mitochondrial protein targeting includes both intramitochondrial sorting of proteins encoded by the organellar genome and import and subsequent sorting of nuclear encoded precursor proteins. Only a few proteins are encoded by the mitochondrial genome and

Role of PKD2 in the endoplasmic reticulum calcium homeostasis
Frontiers in Physiology, 2022 Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is caused by mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 gene which encodes membrane receptor PKD1 and cation channel PKD2, respectively. PKD2, also called transient receptor potential polycystin-2 (TRPP2), is a Ca2+

Substrate-induced conformational dynamics of the dopamine transporter
Nature Communications, 2019 The dopamine transporter is responsible for termination of neurotransmission through Na+-driven reuptake of neurotransmitter from the extracellular space. Here authors use hydrogen-deuterium exchange mass spectrometry to monitor Na+- and dopamine-induced
