Lipid bilayer composition influences small multidrug transporters [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Background:\ud Membrane proteins are influenced by their surrounding lipids. We investigate the effect of bilayer composition on the membrane transport activity of two members of the small multidrug resistance family; the Escherichia coli transporter ...

Role of SEC14-like phosphatidylinositol transfer proteins in membrane identity and dynamics

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Membrane identity and dynamic processes, that act at membrane sites, provide important cues for regulating transport, signal transduction and communication across membranes.

Deletion of Plasmodium falciparum Protein RON3 Affects the Functional Translocation of Exported Proteins and Glucose Uptake

open access: yesmBio, 2019
The survival of Plasmodium spp. within the host red blood cell (RBC) depends on the function of a membrane protein complex, termed the Plasmodium translocon of exported proteins (PTEX), that exports certain parasite proteins, collectively referred to as ...

Structure of a bacterial type IV secretion core complex at subnanometre resolution [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Type IV secretion (T4S) systems are able to transport DNAs and/or proteins through the membranes of bacteria. They form large multiprotein complexes consisting of 12 proteins termed VirB1-11 and VirD4.

Antifolding activity of hsp60 couples protein import into the mitochondrial matrix with export to the intermembrane space [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
Cytochrome b2 reaches the intermembrane space of mitochondria by transport into the matrix followed by export across the inner membrane. While in the matrix, the protein interacts with hsp60, which arrests its folding prior to export.

ER and vacuoles: never been closer

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2014
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) represents the gateway for intracellular trafficking of membrane proteins, soluble cargoes and lipids. In all eukaryotes, the best described mechanism of exiting the ER is via COPII-coated vesicles, which transport both ...

Cation permeability in CorA family of proteins

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2020
CorA proteins belong to 2-TM-GxN family of membrane proteins, and play a major role in Mg2+ transport in prokaryotes and eukaryotic mitochondria. The selection of substrate is believed to occur via the signature motif GxN, however there is no consensus ...

Protein import into chloroplasts: new aspects of a well-known topic [PDF]

open access: yes, 2007
Protein import into plant chloroplasts is a fascinating topic that is being investigated by many research groups. Since the majority of chloroplast proteins are synthesised as precursor proteins in the cytosol, they have to be posttranslationally ...

Legionella pneumophila secretes a mitochondrial carrier protein during infection.

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2012
The Mitochondrial Carrier Family (MCF) is a signature group of integral membrane proteins that transport metabolites across the mitochondrial inner membrane in eukaryotes. MCF proteins are characterized by six transmembrane segments that assemble to form

Oral Protein Therapy for the Future - Transport of Glycolipid-Modified Proteins: Vision or Fiction? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
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 ...
