Current Biology, 2018 Tissue wound repair has been studied extensively. It involves the coordinated activation of several intracellular and intercellular pathways, as well as remodeling from the sequential recruitment of different cell types to the wound site. There is, however, an equally important process that happens at the single cell level, when the integrity of the ...

Membrane Heterogeneity Beyond the Plasma Membrane [PDF]
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020 The structure and organization of cellular membranes have received intense interest, particularly in investigations of the raft hypothesis. The vast majority of these investigations have focused on the plasma membrane of mammalian cells, yielding ...

Plasma Membrane-Associated Restriction Factors and Their Counteraction by HIV-1 Accessory Proteins [PDF]
Cells, 2019 The plasma membrane is a site of conflict between host defenses and many viruses. One aspect of this conflict is the host’s attempt to eliminate infected cells using innate and adaptive cell-mediated immune mechanisms that recognize features of the

Influenza viral infection at the plasma membrane is restricted by lipid composition [PDF]
Journal of VirologyMany enveloped viruses enter cells via fusion with the endosomal membrane, raising the question whether entry through the endosomal route confers a fitness advantage over fusion directly at the plasma membrane.

Novel African trypanocidal agents: membrane rigidifying peptides [PDF]
, 2012 The bloodstream developmental forms of pathogenic African trypanosomes are uniquely susceptible to killing by small hydrophobic peptides. Trypanocidal activity is conferred by peptide hydrophobicity and charge distribution and results from increased ...

MACROPHAGE PLASMA MEMBRANE [PDF]
The Journal of Experimental Medicine, 1971 Rabbit alveolar macrophages were incubated in vitro with radioactive protein precursors. Plasma membranes were isolated from these cells, dissolved in phenol-urea-acetic acid, and separated by acrylamide gel electrophoresis. 3H-leucine was rapidly incorporated into membrane protein.

Yeast Ist2 recruits the endoplasmic reticulum to the plasma membrane and creates a ribosome-free membrane microcompartment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) forms contacts with the plasma membrane. These contacts are known to function in non-vesicular lipid transport and signaling.

Annexin A2 Mediates Dysferlin Accumulation and Muscle Cell Membrane Repair
Cells, 2020 Muscle cell plasma membrane is frequently damaged by mechanical activity, and its repair requires the membrane protein dysferlin. We previously identified that, similar to dysferlin deficit, lack of annexin A2 (AnxA2) also impairs repair of skeletal ...

Biomolecules, 2021 Cell plasma membrane proteins are considered as gatekeepers of the cell and play a major role in regulating various processes. Transport proteins constitute a subclass of cell plasma membrane proteins enabling the exchange of molecules and ions between ...

Cell Reports, 2020 Summary: Plasma membrane damage and cell death during processes such as necroptosis and apoptosis result from cues originating intracellularly. However, death caused by pore-forming agents, like bacterial toxins or complement, is due to direct external ...
