Super-Resolution Imaging Approaches for Quantifying F-Actin in Immune Cells
Immune cells comprise a diverse set of cells that undergo a complex array of biological processes that must be tightly regulated. A key component of cellular machinery that achieves this is the cytoskeleton.

Summary: E-selectin is expressed on endothelial cells in response to inflammatory cytokines and mediates leukocyte rolling and extravasation. However, studies have been hampered by lack of experimental approaches to monitor expression in real time in ...

In vitro reconstitution of substrate S-acylation by the zDHHC family of protein acyltransferases
Protein S-acylation, more commonly known as protein palmitoylation, is a biological process defined by the covalent attachment of long chain fatty acids onto cysteine residues of a protein, effectively altering the local hydrophobicity and influencing ...

Rampant exchange of the structure and function of extramembrane domains between membrane and water soluble proteins. [PDF]
Of the membrane proteins of known structure, we found that a remarkable 67% of the water soluble domains are structurally similar to water soluble proteins of known structure. Moreover, 41% of known water soluble protein structures share a domain with an

Membrane proteins and proteomics: Love is possible, but so difficult [PDF]
Despite decades of extensive research, the large-scale analysis of membrane proteins remains a difficult task. This is due to the fact that membrane proteins require a carefully balanced hydrophilic and lipophilic environment, which optimum varies with ...

DOCKGROUND Membrane Protein-Protein Set [PDF]
ABSTRACTMembrane proteins play essential role in cellular mechanisms. Despite that and the major progress in experimental structure determination, they are still significantly underrepresented in Protein Data Bank. Thus, computational approaches to protein structure determination, which are important in general, are especially valuable in the case of ...

Structure and dynamics of semaglutide- and taspoglutide-bound GLP-1R-Gs complexes
Summary: The glucagon-like peptide-1 receptor (GLP-1R) regulates insulin secretion, carbohydrate metabolism, and appetite and is an important target for treatment of type 2 diabetes and obesity. Multiple GLP-1R agonists have entered into clinical trials,

Lipid–Protein Interactions Are Unique Fingerprints for Membrane Proteins
Cell membranes contain hundreds of different proteins and lipids in an asymmetric arrangement. Understanding the lateral organization principles of these complex mixtures is essential for life and health.
