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

Cortisol Rapidly Facilitates Glucocorticoid Receptor Translocation to the Plasma Membrane in Primary Trout Hepatocytes

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.

Outer Membrane Protein YadA of Enteropathogenic Yersiniae Mediates Specific Binding to Cellular but Not Plasma Fibronectin [PDF]

, 1993
The binding of bacteria or bacterial products to host proteins of tissue extracellular matrix may be a mechanism of tissue adherence. We investigated interactions of the plasmid-encoded outer membrane protein YadA, which confers pathogenic functions on ...

Monoclonal antibody detection of plasma membrane cholesterol microdomains responsive to cholesterol trafficking

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 ...

Regional distribution of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase activity and protein mass in the ocular lens.

Journal of Lipid Research, 1993
We have attempted to map the regional distribution of 3-hydroxy-3-methylglutaryl coenzyme A reductase (HMGR) enzyme activity and protein mass along the radial axis of the ocular lens.

Lipid-mediated activation of plasma membrane-localized deubiquitylating enzymes modulate endosomal trafficking

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 ...

A novel 4.1 ezrin radixin moesin (FERM)-containing protein, 'Willin' [PDF]

, 2005
The 4.1 superfamily of proteins contain a 4.1 Ezrin Radixin Moesin (FERM) domain and are described as linking the cytoskeleton with the plasma membrane. Here, we describe a new FERM domain-containing protein called Willin.

Munc 18-1 Protein Molecules Move between Membrane Molecular Depots Distinct from Vesicle Docking Sites [PDF]

, 2013
Four evolutionarily conserved proteins are required for mammalian regulated exocytosis: three SNARE proteins, syntaxin, SNAP-25, and synaptobrevin, and the SM protein, Munc18-1. Here, using single-molecule imaging, we measured the spatial distribution of
