... as other cytoskeletal proteins. In vivo , septins interact with other cytoskeletal proteins and with the inner plasma membrane. Hence, bottom-up in vitro cell-free assays are well suited to dissect the roles and behavior of septins in a controlled environment. Specifically, in vitro studies have been...

...Karolina Sapoń; Rafał Mańka; Teresa Janas; Tadeusz Janas ABSTRACT The formation of membrane vesicles is a common feature in all eukaryotes. Lipid rafts are the best-studied example of membrane domains for both eukaryotes and prokaryotes, and their existence also is suggested in Archaea membranes...

... with increased cell membrane damage, less efficient membrane repair and increased stiffness. Additionally, FSS treatment prevented the LNCaP FSS-sensitive cell line from forming a growing tumor in vivo . This suggests that these properties play a role in FSS resistance and could represent potential targets...

...Dalton Buysse; Anna-Katharina Pfitzner; Matt West; Aurélien Roux; Greg Odorizzi ABSTRACT The ESCRT-III protein complex executes reverse-topology membrane scission. The scission mechanism is unclear but is linked to remodeling of ESCRT-III complexes at the membrane surface. At endosomes, ESCRT-III...

...Satish Babu Moparthi; Thomas Wollert ABSTRACT Autophagy is one of the most elaborative membrane remodeling systems in eukaryotic cells. Its major function is to recycle cytoplasmic material by delivering it to lysosomes for degradation. To achieve this, a membrane cisterna is formed that gradually...

...Qian Feng; Benoît Kornmann ABSTRACT The intracellular environment of eukaryotic cells is highly complex and compact. The limited volume of the cell, usually a few hundred femtoliters, is not only occupied by numerous complicated, diverse membranous and proteinaceous structures, these structures...

... unilamellar vesicles and infectious X-31 influenza virus, and testing for the newly identified pore intermediate of membrane fusion, we observed ∼30–87% poration, depending upon lipid composition. Testing the hypothesis that spontaneous curvature (SC) of the lipid monolayer controls membrane poration, our...

... and animal formins. We have identified for the first time a plant-specific region of the membrane-integrated formin AtFH4 that mediates an association with the microtubule cytoskeleton. In vitro analysis shows that this region (named the GOE domain) binds directly to microtubules. Overexpressed AtFH4...

... membrane domains is only partially understood. The secretory-machinery-mediated sorting to ERESs is a process that counters the entropy-driven even distribution of membrane proteins within organellar membranes. Here, for the first time, we quantified the dynamic properties of GFP-VSVG sorting to ERESs...

...Robert G. Parton; Michael Hanzal-Bayer; John F. Hancock Caveolae are striking morphological features of the plasma membrane of mammalian cells. Caveolins, the major proteins of caveolae, play a crucial role in the formation of these invaginations of the plasma membrane; however, the precise...

...Simon A. Walker; Peter J. Lockyer Ras GTPases are universal molecular switches that act as kinetic timers of signal transduction events. They are post-translationally modified by the addition of lipid groups to their hypervariable carboxyl termini, which plug the proteins to membranes and influence...
