Lectin-based food poisoning: a new mechanism of protein toxicity. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2007 BACKGROUND: Ingestion of the lectins present in certain improperly cooked vegetables can result in acute GI tract distress, but the mechanism of toxicity is unknown.

Nanoclustering as a dominant feature of plasma membrane organization [PDF]
, 2014 Early studies have revealed that some mammalian plasma membrane proteins exist in small nanoclusters. The advent of super-resolution microscopy has corroborated and extended this picture, and led to the suggestion that many, if not most, membrane ...

Lipid composition of lens plasma membrane fractions enriched in fiber junctions.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1991 Little is known about the lipid environment of lens fiber junctions, the plasma membrane structure proposed to be responsible for passage of low molecular weight metabolites between adjacent lens fiber cells.

High-Throughput Microplate-Based Assay to Monitor Plasma Membrane Wounding and Repair
Frontiers in Cellular and Infection Microbiology, 2017 The plasma membrane of mammalian cells is susceptible to disruption by mechanical and biochemical damages that frequently occur within tissues. Therefore, efficient and rapid repair of the plasma membrane is essential for maintaining cellular homeostasis

SoftwareX, 2023 The plasma membrane that encloses cells is difficult to precisely delineate but this is often required for quantitation of fluorescence images. We have created an ImageJ macro that efficiently maps the plasma membrane based on a few imprecisely marked ...

Biology, 2023 Glucocorticoids (GCs) stimulate rapid cell signalling by activating the membrane-anchored intracellular glucocorticoid receptor (GR). However, the recruitment of the GR to the plasma membrane to facilitate nongenomic signalling is far from clear.

High-resolution three-dimensional views of membrane-associated clathrin and cytoskeleton in critical-point-dried macrophages. [PDF]
, 1983 We obtained high-resolution topographical information about the distribution of clathrin and cytoskeletal filaments on cytoplasmic membrane surfaces of macrophages spreading onto glass coverslips by both critical-point drying of broken-open cells and ...

Journal of Lipid Research, 2001 The hypothesis of lipid domains in cellular plasma membranes is well established. However, direct visualization of the domains has been difficult. Here we report direct visualization of plasma membrane cholesterol microdomains modulated by agents that ...

Nature Communications, 2022 The endocytic degradation of plasma membrane proteins can be modulated by deubiquitylating enzymes (DUBs). Here, the authors describe two plasma membrane localized Arabidopsis DUBs that can be activated by binding to anionic lipids and influence the ...
