Sorting pathways of mitochondrial inner membrane proteins [PDF]
, 1990 Two distinct pathways of sorting and assembly of nuclear-encoded mitochondrial inner membrane proteins are described. In the first pathway, precursor proteins that carry amino-terminal targeting signals are initially translocated via contact sites ...

How Carvedilol activates β2-adrenoceptors
Nature Communications, 2022 Carvedilol is among the most effective β-blockers for improving survival after myocardial infarction. Yet the mechanisms by which carvedilol achieves this superior clinical profile are still unclear.

An intracellular transporter mitigates the CO2‐induced decline in iron content in Arabidopsis shoots
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.This study identifies a gene encoding a transmembrane protein, MIC, which contributes to the reduction of shoot Fe content observed in plants under elevated CO2. MIC is a putative Fe transporter localized to the Golgi and endosomal compartments. Its post‐translational regulation in roots may represent a potential target for improving plant nutrition ...

Protein phosphorylation in yeast mitochondria [PDF]
, 1987 We describe the identification and submitochondrial localization of four protein kinases and of their target proteins in derepressed yeast mitochondria. The activity of one of the kinases depends on the presence of cyclic AMP (cAMP).

Membrane protein serendipity [PDF]
Journal of Biological Chemistry, 2018 My scientific career has taken me from chemistry, via theoretical physics and bioinformatics, to molecular biology and even structural biology. Along the way, serendipity led me to work on problems such as the identification of signal peptides that direct protein trafficking, membrane protein biogenesis, and cotranslational protein folding.

A Cre‐dependent lentiviral vector for neuron subtype‐specific expression of large proteins
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.We designed a versatile and modular lentivector comprising a Cre‐dependent switch and self‐cleaving 2A peptide and tested it for co‐expression of GFP and a 2.8 kb gene of interest (GOI) in mouse cortical parvalbumin (PV+) interneurons and midbrain dopamine (TH+) neurons.

Membrane proteins in nanotechnology [PDF]
The Biochemist, 2009 The potential for nanotechnology to transform modern life has been appreciated for several years. Generally, nanotechnology involves objects with at least one dimension of less than 100 nm. Such stuff is abundant in the natural world, and one of the most exciting current areas in nanoscience research is the use of proteins as nanoscale components of ...

The IQ‐compete assay for measuring mitochondrial protein import efficiencies in living yeast cells
FEBS Letters, EarlyView.The efficiency of mitochondrial protein import depends on the properties of the newly synthesized precursor proteins. The Import and de‐Quenching Competition (IQ‐compete) assay is a novel method to monitor the import efficiency of different proteins by fluorescence in living yeast cells.

Structural Metrics Predict Site-Specific Evolutionary Rate in Membrane Bound Proteins [PDF]
, 2016 Membrane proteins are involved in many critical biological processes and mutations are linked to various diseases. We examined how the properties of the location of an amino acid residue within the protein structure dictates the rate at which it evolves.
