PLoS 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.

The EXO70 inhibitor Endosidin2 alters plasma membrane protein composition in Arabidopsis roots
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 To sustain normal growth and allow rapid responses to environmental cues, plants alter the plasma membrane protein composition under different conditions presumably by regulation of delivery, stability, and internalization.

Solute channels of the outer membrane: from bacteria to chloroplasts [PDF]
, 2007 Chloroplasts, unique organelles of plants, originated from endosymbiosis of an ancestor of today's cyanobacteria with a mitochondria-containing host cell. It is assumed that the outer envelope membrane, which delimits the chloroplast from the surrounding

Dissection of the asynchronous transport of intestinal microvillar hydrolases to the cell surface [PDF]
, 1988 Novel subcellular fractionation procedures and pulse-chase techniques were used to study the intracellular transport of the microvillar membrane hydrolases sucrase-isomaltase and dipeptidylpeptidase IV in the differentiated colon adenocarcinoma cell line

Activity assay of membrane transport proteins [PDF]
Acta Biochimica et Biophysica Sinica, 2008 Membrane transport proteins are integral membrane proteins and considered as potential drug targets. Activity assay of transport proteins is essential for developing drugs to target these proteins. Major issues related to activity assessment of transport proteins include availability of transporters, transport activity of transporters, and interactions

Barley plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIP aquaporins) as water and CO2 transporters [PDF]
, 2008 We identified barley aquaporins and demonstrated that one, HvPIP2;1, transports water and CO2. Regarding water homeostasis in plants, regulations of aquaporin expression were observed in many plants under several environmental stresses. Under salt stress,

Membrane and luminal proteins reach the apicoplast by different trafficking pathways in the malaria parasite Plasmodium falciparum [PDF]
PeerJ, 2017 The secretory pathway in Plasmodium falciparum has evolved to transport proteins to the host cell membrane and to an endosymbiotic organelle, the apicoplast. The latter can occur via the ER or the ER-Golgi route.

Post-Translational Membrane Protein Targeting by the Chloroplast Signal Recognition Particle [PDF]
, 2011 Post-translational transport of membrane proteins poses enormous challenges to the cells. The transport factors must accurately select and deliver the cargos to the appropriate target membranes.

Vesicular traffic in polarized epithelial cells : identification and characterization of general and epithelial specific factors [PDF]
, 1994 Polarized epithelial cells are differentiated into apical and basolateral plasma membrane domains separated by tight junctions. The apical cell surface usually faces the external milieu, the basolateral domain provides cell-cell and cell-substratum ...
