Membrane Transport Proteins [PDF]
Membranes that surround living cells are needed to hold cells together, to keep their metabolites from diffusing away, and to keep out toxic materials. The membrane constitutes a barrier to nutrients being brought in and waste products being excreted. However, transport systems are built into membranes in a way that provides for selective permeability.

Membrane Proteins in Transport and Phosphorylation [PDF]
stimulating foundation for students entering this field of investigation. I t can be recommended to third-year undergraduate and research students without hesitation. As is to be expected of the Biochemical Society, the book is excellently produced and printed; however the price will deter many students from buying it for themselves and librarians will

Biology of membrane transport proteins.
Pharmaceutical research, 1995Membrane 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 ...

Protein transport: A selective membrane mechanism
Journal of Supramolecular Structure, 1976AbstractProteins 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 ...

Lipid modification of proteins and their membrane transport
"Protein Engineering, Design and Selection", 1989An 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 ...

Protein transport across the peroxisomal membrane
bchm, 2009Abstract 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.

Protein toxins and membrane transport
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 1998Recently, 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, 1996Recently 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.

Functional expression and characterisation of membrane transport proteins.
Plant biology, 2012Membrane transporters set the framework organising the complexity of plant metabolism in cells, tissues and organisms. Their substrate specificity and controlled activity in different cells is a crucial part for plant metabolism to run pathways in ...

Membrane transport proteins: not just for transport anymore
American Journal of Physiology-Renal Physiology, 2006digitalis 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.
