Membrane Remodeling by Arc/Arg3.1 [PDF]

Frontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2021
The activity-regulated cytoskeletal-associated protein (Arc, also known as Arg3.1) is an immediate early gene product induced by activity/experience and required for multiple modes of synaptic plasticity.

Remodeling Membrane Binding by Mono-Ubiquitylation [PDF]

Biomolecules, 2019
Ubiquitin (Ub) receptors respond to ubiquitylation signals. They bind ubiquitylated substrates and exert their activity in situ. Intriguingly, Ub receptors themselves undergo rapid ubiquitylation and deubiquitylation.

Cytoplasmic sharing through apical membrane remodeling

eLife, 2020
Multiple nuclei sharing a common cytoplasm are found in diverse tissues, organisms, and diseases. Yet, multinucleation remains a poorly understood biological property. Cytoplasm sharing invariably involves plasma membrane breaches.

Membrane Remodeling: Passive Crosslinkers Drive Membrane Tubulation [PDF]

Current Biology, 2020
A new study has uncovered three mechanisms of motor-independent membrane tubulation. In vitro reconstitution using a minimal set of proteins shows that the accumulation of crosslinking proteins at the membrane-microtubule interface is sufficient to drive tubulation, which is enhanced by coupling with microtubule dynamics.

Differential Packaging Into Outer Membrane Vesicles Upon Oxidative Stress Reveals a General Mechanism for Cargo Selectivity

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021
Selective cargo packaging into bacterial extracellular vesicles has been reported and implicated in many biological processes, however, the mechanism behind the selectivity has remained largely unexplored.

Cyclase-associated protein 2 (CAP2) controls MRTF-A localization and SRF activity in mouse embryonic fibroblasts

Scientific Reports, 2021
Recent studies identified cyclase-associated proteins (CAPs) as important regulators of actin dynamics that control assembly and disassembly of actin filaments (F-actin).

A Putative Lipid-Associating Motif in the West Nile Virus NS4A Protein Is Required for Efficient Virus Replication

Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Flavivirus replication is intimately associated with re-organized cellular membranes. These virus-induced changes in membrane architecture form three distinct membranous “organelles” that have specific functions during the flavivirus life cycle.

Membrane remodelling in bacteria [PDF]

Journal of Structural Biology, 2016
In bacteria the ability to remodel membrane underpins basic cell processes such as growth, and more sophisticated adaptations like inter-cell crosstalk, organelle specialisation, and pathogenesis. Here, selected examples of membrane remodelling in bacteria are presented and the diverse mechanisms for inducing membrane fission, fusion, and curvature ...
