Protein Amphipathic Helix Insertion: A Mechanism to Induce Membrane Fission
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019 One of the fundamental features of biomembranes is the ability to fuse or to separate. These processes called respectively membrane fusion and fission are central in the homeostasis of events such as those related to intracellular membrane traffic ...

Functional recruitment of dynamin requires multimeric interactions for efficient endocytosis
Nature Communications, 2019 During clathrin mediated endocytosis (CME), membrane scission is achieved by the concerted action of dynamin and its interacting partners such as amphiphysins.

Abscission checkpoint control: stuck in the middle with Aurora B [PDF]
Open Biology, 2012 At the end of cell division, the cytoplasmic bridge joining the daughter cells is severed through a process that involves scission of the plasma membrane.

Transient domain formation in membrane-bound organelles undergoing maturation
, 2013 The membrane components of cellular organelles have been shown to segregate into domains as the result of biochemical maturation. We propose that the dynamical competition between maturation and lateral segregation of membrane components regulates domain

Structural analysis of a trimeric assembly of the mitochondrial dynamin-like GTPase Mgm1. [PDF]
, 2020 The fusion of inner mitochondrial membranes requires dynamin-like GTPases, Mgm1 in yeast and OPA1 in mammals, but how they mediate membrane fusion is poorly understood.

Bro1 binding to Snf7 regulates ESCRT-III membrane scission activity in yeast [PDF]
Journal of Cell Biology, 2011 Endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRTs) promote the invagination of vesicles into the lumen of endosomes, the budding of enveloped viruses, and the separation of cells during cytokinesis. These processes share a topologically similar membrane scission event facilitated by ESCRT-III assembly at the cytosolic surface of the membrane ...

Electron–Matter Interactions During Electron Beam Nanopatterning
Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.This article reviews the electron–matter interactions important to nanopatterning with electron beam lithography (EBL). Electron–matter interactions, including secondary electron generation routes, polymer radiolysis, and electron beam induced charging, are discussed.

Protein trafficking through the endosomal system prepares intracellular parasites for a home invasion [PDF]
, 2013 Toxoplasma (toxoplasmosis) and Plasmodium (malaria) use unique secretory organelles for migration, cell invasion, manipulation of host cell functions, and cell egress. In particular, the apical secretory micronemes and rhoptries of apicomplexan parasites

Advanced Functional Materials, EarlyView.Hydrocarbon membranes are a greener alternative to PFSA in PEM fuel cells, but degrade rapidly from radical attack. We present a novel strategy using poly(vinylphosphonic acid) (PVPA) as a local radical scavenger. Incorporated as an interfacial barrier, PVPA enhances chemical stability and significantly extends membrane lifetime under accelerated ...
