Membrane Transport of Proteins

Nature New Biology, 1972
FACILITATED diffusion of small organic molecules across cell membranes is thought to be carrier-mediated in part because the process displays reaction kinetics. Models describing carrier transport assume that the transported molecule is associated with the membrane, reacting presumably with membrane proteins, and is then moved across the barrier.

Biology of Membrane Transport Proteins

Pharmaceutical Research, 1995
Membrane transporter proteins are encoded by numerous genes that can be classified into several superfamilies, on the basis of sequence identity and biological function. Prominent examples include facilitative transporters, the secondary active symporters and antiporters driven by ion gradients, and active ABC (ATP binding cassette) transporters ...

Coat proteins in intracellular membrane transport

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1994
Transport of newly synthesized material from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) towards the Golgi complex, through the Golgi cisternae, and out of the trans-Golgi network (TGN) is thought to be mediated by vesicular carriers. Different types of vesicle are involved in this biosynthetic membrane traffic.

Protein transport: A selective membrane mechanism

Journal of Supramolecular Structure, 1976
AbstractProteins are selectively sequestered by a number of cell types. However, only in oocytes is the process sufficiently aggravated and specific to be readily studied. In these cells certain serum proteins are taken up in proportions different from those found in the serum.In vitro incubations of hormonally stimulated and synchronous mosquito ...

Protein toxins and membrane transport

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1998
Recently, protein toxins have provided novel information on the anatomy of the machinery that mediates vesicle docking and fusion with target membranes within the cell. Their use is being extended to the study of the physiology of these processes in different cells and tissues, as well as to the intracellular pathways of membrane transport.

Transport proteins of the plant plasma membrane

Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1996
Recently developed molecular and genetic approaches have enabled the identification and functional characterization of novel genes encoding ion channels, ion carriers, and water channels of the plant plasma membrane.

Protein transport across the peroxisomal membrane

bchm, 2009
Abstract The maintenance of peroxisome function depends on the formation of the peroxisomal membrane and the subsequent import of both membrane and matrix proteins. Without exception, peroxisomal matrix proteins are nuclear encoded, synthesized on free ribosomes and subsequently imported post-translationally.

Membrane transport proteins: not just for transport anymore

American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2006
digitalis glucosides have been used for their cardiotonic properties for several centuries. It was not until the 1950s that the molecular target of these compounds was identified as the Na-K-ATPase.

Lipid modification of proteins and their membrane transport

"Protein Engineering, Design and Selection", 1989
An effective method for artificial attachment of lipid anchors to water-soluble proteins has been developed. To this end, a protein molecule is modified in a system of reversed micelles by a water-insoluble reagent, e.g. fatty acid chloride. Fatty acylated proteins acquire an ability to translocate across lipid membranes and penetrate intact cells ...
