Active Nuclear Import of Membrane Proteins Revisited
It is poorly understood how membrane proteins destined for the inner nuclear membrane pass the crowded environment of the Nuclear Pore Complex (NPC). For the Saccharomyces cerevisiae proteins Src1/Heh1 and Heh2, a transport mechanism was proposed where ...

New putative chloroplast vesicle transport components and cargo proteins revealed using a bioinformatics approach: an Arabidopsis model. [PDF]
Proteins and lipids are known to be transported to targeted cytosolic compartments in vesicles. A similar system in chloroplasts is suggested to transfer lipids from the inner envelope to the thylakoids. However, little is known about both possible cargo

The yeast vacuolar membrane proteome [PDF]
Transport of solutes between the cytosol and the vacuolar lumen is of crucial importance for various functions of vacuoles, including ion homeostasis; detoxification; storage of different molecules such as amino acids, phosphate, and calcium ions; and ...

Permeation through bacterial cells for exchange or uptake of biomolecules and ions invariably depend upon the existence of pore-forming proteins (porins) in their outer membrane. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (M.

Transport of proteins into and across the thylakoid membrane [PDF]
The biogenesis of thylakoid proteins is a complex issue that requires the operation of at least four pathways within the chloroplast. Two of the pathways are used for soluble lumenal proteins, where the proteins bear cleavable targeting signals that are recognized by one of two distinct translocases. These pathways differ in fundamental respects.

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

Electron transport and light-harvesting switches in cyanobacteria
Cyanobacteria possess multiple mechanisms for regulating the pathways of photosynthetic and respiratory electron transport. Electron transport may be regulated indirectly by controlling the transfer of excitation energy from the light-harvesting ...

Oral Protein Therapy for the Future - Transport of Glycolipid-Modified Proteins: Vision or Fiction? [PDF]
The reliable and early diagnosis of common complex multifactorial diseases depends on the individual determination of all (or as many as possible) polymorphisms of each susceptibility gene together with amount and type of the corresponding gene products ...

In kinetoplastid protists, several metabolic pathways, including glycolysis and purine salvage, are located in glycosomes, which are microbodies that are evolutionarily related to peroxisomes.

Transport of proteins across mitochondrial membranes [PDF]
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
