Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Biomembranes, 2009 The association of tubulin with the plasma membrane comprises multiple levels of penetration into the bilayer: from integral membrane protein, to attachment via palmitoylation, to surface binding, and to microtubules attached by linker proteins to proteins in the membrane.

Compartmentalization of the plasma membrane
Current Opinion in Cell Biology, 2018 The compartmentalization of the plasma membrane is essential for cells to perform specialized biochemical functions, in particular those responsible for intracellular and intercellular signaling pathways. Study of membrane compartmentalization requires state-of-the-art imaging tools that can reveal dynamics of individual molecules with high spatial and

Influenza viral infection at the plasma membrane is restricted by lipid composition
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.

Annexin A6 mediates calcium-dependent exosome secretion during plasma membrane repair
eLife, 2023 Exosomes are an extracellular vesicle (EV) subtype that is secreted upon the fusion of multivesicular bodies (MVBs) with the plasma membrane. Exosomes may participate in intercellular communication and have utility as disease biomarkers; however, little ...

BMC Cell Biology, 2018 Background Rho guanine exchange factors (RhoGEFs) control cellular processes such as migration, adhesion and proliferation. Alternative splicing of the RhoGEF Trio produces TGAT. The RhoGEF TGAT is an oncoprotein with constitutive RhoGEF activity.

Unremodeled GPI-anchored proteins at the plasma membrane trigger aberrant endocytosis
Life Science AllianceA unique plasma membrane stressor induces vacuolar degradation of abnormally endocytosed proteins. The plasma membrane has a complex organization that includes the polarized distribution of membrane proteins and lipids.

Membrane order in the plasma membrane and endocytic recycling compartment. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2017 The cholesterol content of membranes plays an important role in organizing membranes for signal transduction and protein trafficking as well as in modulating the biophysical properties of membranes.

Role of phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate in regulating EHD2 plasma membrane localization. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 The four mammalian C-terminal Eps15 homology domain-containing proteins (EHD1-EHD4) play pivotal roles in endocytic membrane trafficking. While EHD1, EHD3 and EHD4 associate with intracellular tubular/vesicular membranes, EHD2 localizes to the inner ...
