Aging in vitro and D-glucose uptake kinetics of diploid human fibroblasts [PDF]
By use of a rapid technique, initial rates of D-glucose transport were obtained during the lifespan in vitro of a commercially available strain of human embryo lung fibroblasts (Flow 2000).

Substrate-triggered position switching of TatA and TatB during Tat transport in Escherichia coli [PDF]
The twin-arginine protein transport (Tat) machinery mediates the translocation of folded proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane of prokaryotes and the thylakoid membrane of plant chloroplasts.

Rabbits were given intravenous injections of L-leucine 4,5/sup 3/H and L- leucine-/sup 12/C. The animals were killed at intervals up to 17h after the last injection and the lungs were removed and lavaged. After the lavage the lungs were minced and homogenized. Proteins were assayed for radioactivity.

Transport of Ciliary Membrane Proteins [PDF]
Cilia and flagella are highly conserved organelles in eukaryotic cells that drive cell movement and act as cell antennae that receive and transmit signals. In addition to receiving and transducing external signals that activate signal cascades, cilia also secrete ciliary ectosomes that send signals to recipient cells, and thereby mediate cell-cell ...

Role of anisotropy for protein-protein encounter [PDF]
Protein-protein interactions comprise both transport and reaction steps. During the transport step, anisotropy of proteins and their complexes is important both for hydrodynamic diffusion and accessibility of the binding site.

Conversion of the coprogen transport protein FhuE and the ferrioxamine B transport protein FoxA into ferrichrome transport proteins [PDF]
The FhuA protein of Escherichia coli K-12 transports ferrichrome and the structurally related antibiotic albomycin across the outer membrane and serves as a receptor for the phages T1, T5, and phi 80 and for colicin M. In this paper, we show that chimeric proteins consisting of the central part of FhuA and the N- and C-terminal parts of FhuE (coprogen ...

Technical Note: The Use of RNA-interference as a Tool to Find Proteins Involved in Melanosome Formation or Transport [PDF]
Melanosomes are lysosome-related organelles that produce and transport the pigment melanin within melanocytes. Mutations in proteins required for melanosome transport and formation lead to a range of pigmentation defects, manifested at the cellular level

Escherichia coli TatA and TatB Proteins Have N-out, C-in Topology in Intact Cells [PDF]
The twin arginine protein transport (Tat) system translocates folded proteins across the cytoplasmic membrane of prokaryotes and the thylakoid membrane of chloroplasts.

Functional characterization and discovery of modulators of SbMATE, the agronomically important aluminium tolerance transporter from Sorghum bicolor. [PDF]
About 50% of the world's arable land is strongly acidic (pH ≤ 5). The low pH solubilizes root-toxic ionic aluminium (Al3+) species from clay minerals, driving the evolution of counteractive adaptations in cultivated crops.
