ER and vacuoles: never been closer
Frontiers 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
Scientific 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 ...

Membrane transport proteins of the malaria parasite [PDF]
Molecular Microbiology, 2009 SummaryThe malaria parasite‐infected erythrocyte is a multi‐compartment structure, incorporating numerous different membrane systems. The movement of nutrients, metabolites and inorganic ions into and out of the intraerythrocytic parasite, as well as between subcellular compartments within the parasite, is mediated by transporters and channels ...

Legionella pneumophila secretes a mitochondrial carrier protein during infection.
PLoS 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

ORP1L, ORP1S, and ORP2: Lipid Sensors and Transporters
Contact, 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 ...

Membrane glycine transport proteins
Journal 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.

Relative domain folding and stability of a membrane transport protein [PDF]
, 2014 There is a limited understanding of the folding of multidomain membrane proteins. Lactose permease (LacY) of Escherichia coli is an archetypal member of the major facilitator superfamily of membrane transport proteins, which contain two domains of six ...

Characterization of Translocation Contact Sites Involved in the Import of Mitochondrial Proteins [PDF]
, 1987 Import of proteins into the mitochondrial matrix requires translocation across two membranes. Translocational intermediates of mitochondrial proteins, which span the outer and inner membrane simultaneously and thus suggest that translocation occurs in ...

A cytosolic factor mediating membrane recruitment of AP-1 clathrin adaptors [PDF]
, 2008 Transport of cargo within the endocytic and secretory pathway is generally mediated by coated vesicles. These vesicles are formed through the recruitment of cytosolic coat proteins to the donor membrane that act as a scaffold to form coated buds and ...

Quantitative analysis of H2O2 transport through purified membrane proteins
MethodsX, 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
