Surface Polymer Network Model and Effective Membrane Curvature Elasticity
, 1995 A microscopic model of a surface polymer network - membrane system is introduced, with contact polymer surface interactions that can be either repulsive or attractive and sliplinks of functionality four randomly distributed over the supporting membrane ...

Clinical Case Reports, Volume 14, Issue 3, March 2026.ABSTRACT Malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors (MPNSTs) can rarely present as anterior mediastinal masses in patients with neurofibromatosis type 1 (NF1), causing respiratory symptoms and diagnostic challenges. Multidisciplinary evaluation, including biopsy and imaging, is essential for diagnosis, with surgical resection as the primary treatment ...

The loss of βΙ spectrin alters synaptic size and composition in the ja/ja mouse
Frontiers in NeuroscienceIntroductionDeletion or mutation of members of the spectrin gene family contributes to many neurologic and neuropsychiatric disorders. While each spectrinopathy may generate distinct neuropathology, the study of βΙ spectrin’s role (Sptb) in the brain has

Cotranslational folding of proteins on the ribosome.
, 2020 Many proteins in the cell fold cotranslationally within the restricted space of the polypeptide exit tunnel or at the surface of the ribosome. A growing body of evidence suggests that the ribosome can alter the folding trajectory in many different ways ...

Developmental mechanism of the periodic membrane skeleton in axons
eLife, 2014 Actin, spectrin, and associated molecules form a periodic sub-membrane lattice structure in axons. How this membrane skeleton is developed and why it preferentially forms in axons are unknown.

Properties of brain spectrin (fodrin)
FEBS Letters, 1983 Fodrin, a protein from bovine brain, immunologically related to spectrin, is shown, unlike some other proteins of generally similar appearance in the electron microscope, to resemble spectrin closely in its most distinctive structural characteristic, the very high α‐helix content. Like spectrin, it is also insoluble below pH 5. One of the subunits only

Loop-closure events during protein folding: Rationalizing the shape of Phi-value distributions
, 2005 In the past years, the folding kinetics of many small single-domain proteins has been characterized by mutational Phi-value analysis. In this article, a simple, essentially parameter-free model is introduced which derives folding routes from native ...
