ORP1L, ORP1S, and ORP2: Lipid Sensors and Transporters

open access: yesContact, 2020
Lipid transfer proteins are crucial for intracellular cholesterol trafficking at sites of membrane contact. In the OSBP/ORPs (oxysterol binding protein and OSBP-related proteins) family of lipid transfer proteins, ORP1L, ORP1S and ORP2 play important ...

Functional characterization and discovery of modulators of SbMATE, the agronomically important aluminium tolerance transporter from Sorghum bicolor. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
About 50% of the world's arable land is strongly acidic (pH ≤ 5). The low pH solubilizes root-toxic ionic aluminium (Al3+) species from clay minerals, driving the evolution of counteractive adaptations in cultivated crops.

Membrane glycine transport proteins

open access: yesJournal of Biomedical Science, 2003
Structurally, the simplest amino acid is glycine, and it has a number of important yet distinct functions in the body. This review focuses on the different transport systems and the associated carrier proteins for glycine that are responsible for its movement across biological membranes.

Mitochondrial protein import [PDF]

open access: yes, 1994
The transport of nuclear-encoded proteins from the cytosol into mitochondria is mediated by targeting (signal) sequences present on precursor forms.

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.

Quantitative analysis of H2O2 transport through purified membrane proteins

open access: yesMethodsX, 2020
Hydrogen peroxide (H2O2) is an important signal molecule produced in animal and plant cells. The balance of H2O2 between the intra- and extracellular space is regulated by integral membrane proteins, which thereby modulate signaling. Several methods have

Proton-coupled sugar transport in the prototypical major facilitator superfamily protein XylE. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The major facilitator superfamily (MFS) is the largest collection of structurally related membrane proteins that transport a wide array of substrates.

Subcellular distribution of ezrin/radixin/moesin and their roles in the cell surface localization and transport function of P-glycoprotein in human colon adenocarcinoma LS180 cells.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2021
The ezrin/radixin/moesin (ERM) family proteins act as linkers between the actin cytoskeleton and P-glycoprotein (P-gp) and regulate the plasma membrane localization and functionality of the latter in various cancer cells.

VIP21, a 21-kD membrane protein is an integral component of trans-Golgi-network-derived transport vesicles [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
In simple epithelial cells, apical and basolateral proteins are sorted into separate vesicular carriers before delivery to the appropriate plasma membrane domains.

Mapping the evolution of mitochondrial complex I through structural variation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Respiratory complex I (CI) is crucial for bioenergetic metabolism in many prokaryotes and eukaryotes. It is composed of a conserved set of core subunits and additional accessory subunits that vary depending on the organism. Here, we categorize CI subunits from available structures to map the evolution of CI across eukaryotes. Respiratory complex I (CI)
