Membrane Transport Proteins in Osteoclasts: The Ins and Outs. [PDF]
Front Cell Dev Biol, 2021 During bone resorption, the osteoclast must sustain an extraordinarily low pH environment, withstand immense ionic pressures, and coordinate nutrient and waste exchange across its membrane to sustain its unique structural and functional polarity.

Therapeutic Nanobodies Targeting Cell Plasma Membrane Transport Proteins: A High-Risk/High-Gain Endeavor. [PDF]
Biomolecules, 2021 Cell plasma membrane proteins are considered as gatekeepers of the cell and play a major role in regulating various processes. Transport proteins constitute a subclass of cell plasma membrane proteins enabling the exchange of molecules and ions between ...

Single-Molecule FRET of Membrane Transport Proteins. [PDF]
Chembiochem, 2021 AbstractUncovering the structure and function of biomolecules is a fundamental goal in structural biology. Membrane‐embedded transport proteins are ubiquitous in all kingdoms of life. Despite structural flexibility, their mechanisms are typically studied by ensemble biochemical methods or by static high‐resolution structures, which complicate a ...

A Continuum Poisson-Boltzmann Model for Membrane Channel Proteins [PDF]
arXiv, 2017 Membrane proteins constitute a large portion of the human proteome and perform a variety of important functions as membrane receptors, transport proteins, enzymes, signaling proteins, and more. The computational studies of membrane proteins are usually much more complicated than those of globular proteins.

Collective Molecular Dynamics in Proteins and Membranes [PDF]
Biointerphases Volume 3, Issue 2, pp. FB83-FB90 (June 2008), 2008 The understanding of dynamics and functioning of biological membranes and in particular of membrane embedded proteins is one of the most fundamental problems and challenges in modern biology and biophysics. In particular the impact of membrane composition and properties and of structure and dynamics of the surrounding hydration water on protein ...

Anomalous diffusion of proteins in sheared lipid membranes [PDF]
, 2013 We use coarse grained molecular dynamics simulations to investigate diffusion properties of sheared lipid membranes with embedded transmembrane proteins. In membranes without proteins, we find normal in-plane diffusion of lipids in all flow conditions. Protein embedded membranes behave quite differently: by imposing a simple shear flow and sliding the ...

Transport of proteins across mitochondrial membranes [PDF]
The Clinical Investigator, 1994 The vast majority of proteins comprising the mitochondrion are encoded by nuclear genes, synthesized on ribosomes in the cytosol, and translocated into the various mitochondrial subcompartments. During this process proteins must cross the lipid membranes of the mitochondrion without interfering with the integrity or functions of the organelle.
