Functional characterisation of the lipid raft protein stomatin [PDF]

, 2005
The function of the integral membrane protein stomatin is as yet poorly understood. Stomatin is deficient from the erythrocyte membrane of patients suffering with Overhydrated Hereditary Stomatocytosis (OHSt).

Protein diffusion in plant cell plasma membranes: The cell-wall corral

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013
Studying protein diffusion informs us about how proteins interact with their environment. Work on protein diffusion over the last several decades has illustrated the complex nature of biological lipid bilayers.

The road not taken: Less traveled roads from the TGN to the plasma membrane [PDF]

, 2015
: The trans-Golgi network functions in the distribution of cargo into different transport vesicles that are destined to endosomes, lysosomes and the plasma membrane. Over the years, it has become clear that more than one transport pathway promotes plasma

Fast Blood Oxygenation through Hemocompatible Asymmetric Polymer of Intrinsic Microporosity Membranes

Research, 2023
Membrane technology has attracted considerable attention for chemical and medical applications, among others. Artificial organs play important roles in medical science. A membrane oxygenator, also known as artificial lung, can replenish O2 and remove CO2

Barley plasma membrane intrinsic proteins (PIP aquaporins) as water and CO2 transporters [PDF]

, 2008
We identified barley aquaporins and demonstrated that one, HvPIP2;1, transports water and CO2. Regarding water homeostasis in plants, regulations of aquaporin expression were observed in many plants under several environmental stresses. Under salt stress,

Plasma membrane compartmentation in Saccharomyces cerevisiae [PDF]

, 2009
In the plasma membrane of cells the complex variety of components is sorted into subcompartments, microdomains and nanoclusters. We only begin to understand the principles of this higher order.

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.

Ebola and Marburg virus matrix layers are locally ordered assemblies of VP40 dimers

eLife, 2020
Filoviruses such as Ebola and Marburg virus bud from the host membrane as enveloped virions. This process is achieved by the matrix protein VP40. When expressed alone, VP40 induces budding of filamentous virus-like particles, suggesting that localization

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

How membrane structures control T cell signaling.

Frontiers in Immunology, 2012
Genetic and biochemical studies have identified a large number of molecules involved in T cell signalling. They have provided us with a comprehensive understanding of protein-protein interactions and protein modifications that take place upon antigen ...
