Insights into membrane solubilization by styrene-maleic acid copolymers [PDF]

, 2018
Styrene-and-maleic acid copolymers (SMA) are gaining interest in membrane protein research due to their ability of solubilizing lipid membranes into nanodiscs.

Arginine methylation as a regulatory ratchet in cancer: From substrate selection to malignant‐state stabilization

Molecular Oncology, EarlyView.
Arginine methylation can be viewed as a persistence‐prone post‐translational modification regulated by a network of PRMTs. Competitive and compensatory interactions among PRMTs can redistribute methylation across substrate pools shaped by sequence, structural, spatial, and environmental layers, reinforcing RNA‐processing, chromatin, and signaling ...

Membrane potential-dependent calcium transport in right-side-out plasma membrane vesicles from Zea mays L. roots

, 1994
Right-side-out plasma membrane Vesicles isolated from Zea mays roots were used to study membrane potential (Delta Psi)-dependent Ca2+ transport. Membrane potentials were imposed on the vesicles using either K+ concentration gradients and valinomycin or ...

Single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assays for high‐throughput DNA–protein interaction studies

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
We describe an optimised single‐molecule DNA flow‐stretch assay that visualises DNA–protein interactions in real time. Linear DNA fragments are tethered to a surface and stretched by buffer flow for fluorescence imaging. Using λ and φX174 DNA, this protocol enhances reproducibility and accessibility, providing a versatile approach for studying diverse ...

Lipopolysaccharide uptake is augmented in lipopolysaccharide‐tolerant mouse macrophage‐like cells via increased CD14 expression

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In normal (nontolerant) cells, CD14 is crucial for both LPS uptake and LPS signaling. In LPS‐tolerant cells, in which LPS‐induced TNF‐α and IFN‐β production is suppressed, there is a dramatic increase in surface CD14 expression. The overexpressed CD14 in LPS‐tolerant cells is responsible for the enhanced LPS uptake without inducing pro‐inflammatory ...

Impact of Hybrid and Complex N-Glycans on Cell Surface Targeting of the Endogenous Chloride Cotransporter Slc12a2

International Journal of Cell Biology, 2015
The Na+K+2Cl− cotransporter-1 (Slc12a2, NKCC1) is widely distributed and involved in cell volume/ion regulation. Functional NKCC1 locates in the plasma membrane of all cells studied, particularly in the basolateral membrane of most polarized cells ...

Cyclic azapeptide CD36 ligand attenuates cardiac injury and reduces long‐chain fatty acid accumulation after myocardial ischemia–reperfusion in mice

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
In a murine model of myocardial ischemia and reperfusion (MI/R), the CD36 azapeptide ligand MPE‐298 reduces cardiac injury and transiently lowers left ventricular long‐chain fatty acids (LCFAs) accumulation 3 h after reperfusion, accompanied by a decrease of oxidative stress and inflammation‐associated genes' expression in the heart and adipose tissue.

Asymmetry and heterogeneity in the plasma membrane

Biophysical Journal
ABSTRACT Plasma membranes (PMs) exhibit asymmetry between their two leaflets in terms of phospholipid headgroups, unsaturation, and resulting membrane properties such as packing and fluidity. Lateral heterogeneity, including the formation of lipid domains, is another crucial aspect of PMs with significant biological implications ...

antiport activity in plasma membrane and tonoplast vesicles isolated from NaCl-treated cucumber roots

, 2012
Sodium/proton antiporter activity in the plasma membrane and tonoplast of cucumber seedling roots treated with 200 mM NaCl for 24 h was determined. It was observed that plasma membrane and tonoplast antiporter activity was only present in membranes from ...

UiO‐66 metal–organic frameworks in biomedicine: From structural tunability to bioimaging, photodiagnostics, and photodynamic cancer therapy

FEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
UiO‐66(Zr) metal–organic frameworks are chemically stable, biocompatible, and highly tunable nanomaterials. Their modular structure enables controlled drug delivery, multimodal bioimaging, and light‐activated photodynamic therapy, supporting integrated diagnostic and therapeutic (theranostic) applications in cancer and biomedical research.
