Microbial biosynthesis of designer outer membrane vesicles [PDF]
Current Opinion in Biotechnology, 2014 Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) are nanoscale proteoliposomes that are ubiquitously secreted by Gram-negative bacteria. Interest in these bioparticles has escalated over the years, leading to discoveries regarding their composition, production, and vaccine potential.

Visualization of the exocyst complex dynamics at the plasma membrane of Arabidopsis thaliana [PDF]
, 2013 The exocyst complex, an effector of Rho and Rab GTPases, is believed to function as an exocytotic vesicle tether at the plasma membrane before soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) complex formation.

Engineering Planar Gram-Negative Outer Membrane Mimics Using Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles
Langmuir, 2023 AbstractAntibiotic resistance is a major challenge in modern medicine. The unique double membrane structure of gram-negative bacteria limits the efficacy of many existing antibiotics and adds complexity to antibiotic development by limiting transport of antibiotics to the bacterial cytosol. New methods to mimic this barrier would enable high-throughput

Outer membrane vesicles as platform vaccine technology [PDF]
Biotechnology Journal, 2015 AbstractOuter membrane vesicles (OMVs) are released spontaneously during growth by many Gram‐negative bacteria. They present a range of surface antigens in a native conformation and have natural properties like immunogenicity, self‐adjuvation and uptake by immune cells which make them attractive for application as vaccines against pathogenic bacteria ...

Identification of a synaptic vesicle-specific membrane protein with a wide distribution in neuronal and neurosecretory tissue. [PDF]
, 1981 Two different monoclonal antibodies, characterized initially as binding synaptic terminal regions of rat brain, bind a 65,000-dalton protein, which is exposed on the outer surface of brain synaptic vesicles. Immunocytochemical experiments at the electron

Caspase-8 binding to cardiolipin in giant unilamellar vesicles provides a functional docking platform for bid [PDF]
, 2013 Caspase-8 is involved in death receptor-mediated apoptosis in type II cells, the proapoptotic programme of which is triggered by truncated Bid. Indeed, caspase-8 and Bid are the known intermediates of this signalling pathway.

Sites of Biosynthesis of Outer and Inner Membrane Proteins of Neurospora crassa Mitochondria [PDF]
, 1970 Outer and inner membranes of Neurospora crassa mitochondria were separated by the combined swelling, shrinking, sonication procedure. Membranes were characterized by electron microscopy and by marker enzyme activities.
