The Road not Taken: Less Traveled Roads from the TGN to the Plasma Membrane [PDF]

open access: yesMembranes, 2015
The trans-Golgi network functions in the distribution of cargo into different transport vesicles that are destined to endosomes, lysosomes and the plasma membrane.

The Ton Motor

open access: yesFrontiers in Microbiology, 2022
The Ton complex is a molecular motor at the inner membrane of Gram-negative bacteria that uses a proton gradient to apply forces on outer membrane (OM) proteins to permit active transport of nutrients into the periplasmic space.

Mechanism Study of Proteins under Membrane Environment

open access: yesMembranes, 2022
Membrane proteins play crucial roles in various physiological processes, including molecule transport across membranes, cell communication, and signal transduction. Approximately 60% of known drug targets are membrane proteins.

Regulation of Plasma Membrane Sterol Homeostasis by Nonvesicular Lipid Transport

open access: yesContact, 2021
Sterol contributes to the structural integrity of cellular membranes and plays an important role in the regulation of cell signaling in eukaryotes. It is either produced in the endoplasmic reticulum or taken up from the extracellular environment. In most

Outer Membrane Vesicles of Acinetobacter baumannii DS002 Are Selectively Enriched with TonB-Dependent Transporters and Play a Key Role in Iron Acquisition

open access: yesMicrobiology Spectrum, 2022
Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) of Acinetobacter baumannii DS002 carry proteins which perform selective biological functions. The proteins involved in cell wall/membrane biogenesis and inorganic ion transport and metabolism occupied a significant portion ...

Protein transport in organelles: Protein transport into and across the thylakoid membrane [PDF]

open access: yesThe FEBS Journal, 2009
The chloroplast thylakoid is the most abundant membrane system in nature, and is responsible for the critical processes of light capture, electron transport and photophosphorylation. Most of the resident proteins are imported from the cytosol and then transported into or across the thylakoid membrane. This minireview describes the multitude of pathways

Vesicle trafficking and vesicle fusion: mechanisms, biological functions, and their implications for potential disease therapy

open access: yesMolecular Biomedicine, 2022
Intracellular vesicle trafficking is the fundamental process to maintain the homeostasis of membrane-enclosed organelles in eukaryotic cells. These organelles transport cargo from the donor membrane to the target membrane through the cargo containing ...

Transport of proteins into mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1985
Translocational intermediates of precursor proteins of ATPase F1β subunit and cytochrome c1 across mitochondrial membranes were analyzed using two different approaches, transport at low temperature and transport after binding of precursor proteins to ...

Energy- and temperature-dependent transport of integral proteins to the inner nuclear membrane via the nuclear pore [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Resident integral proteins of the inner nuclear membrane (INM) are synthesized as membrane-integrated proteins on the peripheral endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and are transported to the INM throughout interphase using an unknown trafficking mechanism.

Occurrence and potential mechanism of holin-mediated non-lytic protein translocation in bacteria

open access: yesMicrobial Cell, 2022
Holins are generally believed to generate large membrane lesions that permit the passage of endolysins across the cytoplasmic membrane of prokaryotes, ultimately resulting in cell wall degradation and cell lysis. However, there are more and more examples
