Circular dichroism spectroscopy of membrane proteins.
Circular dichroism (CD) spectroscopy is a well-established technique for studying the secondary structures, dynamics, folding pathways, and interactions of soluble proteins, and is complementary to the high resolution but generally static structures ...

Structure of Human ATG9A, the Only Transmembrane Protein of the Core Autophagy Machinery
Summary: Autophagy is a catabolic process involving capture of cytoplasmic materials into double-membraned autophagosomes that subsequently fuse with lysosomes for degradation of the materials by lysosomal hydrolases.

Membrane protein secretases [PDF]
A diverse range of membrane proteins of Type I or Type II topology also occur as a circulating, soluble form. These soluble forms are often derived from the membrane form by proteolysis by a group of enzymes referred to collectively as ‘secretases‘ or ‘sheddases’.

Influences of Excluded Volume of Molecules on Signaling Processes on Biomembrane [PDF]
We investigate the influences of the excluded volume of molecules on biochemical reaction processes on 2-dimensional surfaces using a model of signal transduction processes on biomembranes.

Modular detergents tailor the purification and structural analysis of membrane proteins including G-protein coupled receptors [PDF]
Detergents enable the purification of membrane proteins and are indispensable reagents instructural biology. Even though a large variety of detergents have been developed in the lastcentury, the challenge remains to identify guidelines that allowfine ...

Membrane-bending proteins [PDF]
Cellular membranes can assume a number of highly dynamic shapes. Many cellular processes also require transient membrane deformations. Membrane shape is determined by the complex interactions of proteins and lipids. A number of families of proteins that directly bend membranes have been identified.

Membrane protein serendipity [PDF]
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.
