Dynamic clustering of dynamin-amphiphysin helices regulates membrane constriction and fission coupled with GTP hydrolysis

open access: yeseLife, 2018
Dynamin is a mechanochemical GTPase essential for membrane fission during clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Dynamin forms helical complexes at the neck of clathrin-coated pits and their structural changes coupled with GTP hydrolysis drive membrane fission ...

Action of the Metalloproteinases in Gonadal Remodeling during Sex Reversal in the Sequential Hermaphroditism of the Teleostei Fish Synbranchus marmoratus (Synbranchiformes: Synbranchidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Teleostei present great plasticity regarding sex change. During sex reversal, the whole gonadincluding the germinal epithelium undergoes significant changes, remodeling, and neoformation.However, there is no information on the changes that occur within ...

Vascular remodeling of the mouse yolk sac requires hemodynamic force [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
The embryonic heart and vessels are dynamic and form and remodel while functional. Much has been learned about the genetic mechanisms underlying the development of the cardiovascular system, but we are just beginning to understand how changes in heart ...

Membrane remodeling during reticulocyte maturation

open access: yesBlood, 2010
AbstractThe transition of reticulocytes into erythrocytes is accompanied by extensive changes in the structure and properties of the plasma membrane. These changes include an increase in shear resistance, loss of surface area, and acquisition of a biconcave shape. The processes by which these changes are effected have remained largely undefined.

The yeast P5 type ATPase, Spf1, regulates manganese transport into the endoplasmic reticulum [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a large, multifunctional and essential organelle. Despite intense research, the function of more than a third of ER proteins remains unknown even in the well-studied model organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae.

Altered excitation-contraction coupling in human chronic atrial fibrillation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
This review focuses on the (mal)adaptive processes in atrial excitation-contraction coupling occurring in patients with chronic atrial fibrillation. Cellular remodeling includes shortening of the atrial action potential duration and effective refractory ...

Structural insights into membrane remodeling by SNX1 [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021
Significance Coat proteins play a central role in the intracellular transport pathways by coupling two main functions: bending the membrane to generate transport carriers and binding to cargoes for their sorting into these carriers. Studies thus far have mostly solved the structure of coat proteins in solution, but their functional form ...
