Peroxisomal Metabolite and Cofactor Transport in Humans

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles involved in many metabolic pathways and essential for human health. They harbor a large number of enzymes involved in the different pathways, thus requiring transport of substrates, products and cofactors ...

Presynaptic Precursor Vesicles—Cargo, Biogenesis, and Kinesin-Based Transport across Species

open access: yesCells, 2023
The faithful formation and, consequently, function of a synapse requires continuous and tightly controlled delivery of synaptic material. At the presynapse, a variety of proteins with unequal molecular properties are indispensable to compose and control ...

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.

Membrane Trafficking Mechanisms and Their Biological Relevance [PDF]

open access: yesArchives of Razi Institute, 2023
Most chemicals expressed in mammalian cells have complex delivery and transport mechanisms to get to the right intracellular sites. One of these mechanisms transports most transmembrane proteins, as well as almost all secreted proteins, from the ...

Translocation and insertion of precursor proteins into isolated outer membranes of mitochondria [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
Nuclear-encoded proteins destined for mitochondria must cross the outer or both outer and inner membranes to reach their final sub- mitochondrial locations. While the inner membrane can translocate preproteins by itself, it is not known whether the outer

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 ...

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 ...

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.

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
