Acidification on the plasma membrane
Current Opinion in Cell BiologyThe pH balance between extracellular and intracellular space is crucial for a multitude of cellular processes. Real-time observation of pH fluctuations in the range 4-9 in live cells and tissues in a sensitive, non-invasive manner has become feasible with advances in pH quantification by organic dyes, genetically encoded fluorescent proteins, and DNA ...

Measurement of ATP Hydrolytic Activity of Plasma Membrane H+-ATPase from Arabidopsis thaliana Leaves
Bio-Protocol, 2016 Plant plasma membrane H+-ATPase, which is a P-type ATPase, couples ATP hydrolysis to H+ extrusion and thereby generates an electrochemical gradient across the plasma membrane. The proton gradient is necessary for secondary transport, cell elongation, and

Hydrogen Production from Ammonia Using a Plasma Membrane Reactor
Journal of Sustainable Development of Energy, Water and Environment Systems, 2016 In this study, an efficient method for using pulsed plasma to produce hydrogen from ammonia was developed. An original pulsed plasma reactor with a hydrogen separation membrane was developed for efficient hydrogen production, and its hydrogen production ...

Monitoring voltage fluctuations of intracellular membranes
Scientific Reports, 2018 In eukaryotic cells, the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the largest continuous membrane-enclosed network which surrounds a single lumen. Using a new genetically encoded voltage indicator (GEVI), we applied the patch clamp technique to cultured HEK293 ...

Integration Through Separation – The Role of Lateral Membrane Segregation in Nutrient Uptake
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2019 Nutrient transporters are prominent and ubiquitous components of the plasma membrane in all cell types. Their expression and regulation are tightly linked to the cells’ needs.

Triacylglycerol-rich lipoprotein cholesterol is derived from the plasma membrane in CaCo-2 cells.
Journal of Lipid Research, 1995 The source for triacylglycerol-rich lipoprotein cholesterol was investigated in CaCo-2 cells grown on filters separating an upper and a lower well. Oleic acid, a fatty acid that promotes triacylglycerol-rich lipoprotein synthesis and secretion in CaCo-2 ...
