Reversible Unfolding of a Thermophilic Membrane Protein in Phospholipid/Detergent Mixed Micelles
(Academic Press Ltd - Elsevier Science Ltd, 2010-03)
Folding mechanisms and stability of membrane proteins are poorly understood because of the known difficulties in finding experimental conditions under which reversible denaturation could be possible. In this work, we ...
Kinetics and Thermodynamics of Membrane Protein Folding
(Molecular Diversity Preservation International, 2014-03)
Understanding protein folding has been one of the great challenges in biochemistry and molecular biophysics. Over the past 50 years, many thermodynamic and kinetic studies have been performed addressing the stability of ...
Sensing membrane thickness: Lessons learned from cold stress
(Elsevier Science, 2016-08)
The lipid bilayer component of biological membranes is important for the distribution, organization, and function of bilayer spanning proteins. These physical barriers are subjected to bilayer perturbations. As a consequence, ...
The integrity of the α-helical domain of intestinal fatty acid binding protein is essential for the collision-mediated transfer of fatty acids to phospholipid membranes
(Elsevier Science, 2008-04)
Intestinal FABP (IFABP) and liver FABP (LFABP), homologous proteins expressed at high levels in intestinal absorptive cells, employ markedly different mechanisms of fatty acid transfer to acceptor model membranes. Transfer ...
A Maurer's cleft-associated Plasmodium falciparum membrane-associated histidine-rich protein peptide specifically interacts with the erythrocyte membrane
The membrane-associated histidine-rich protein-1 (MAHRP-1) is a Maurer's cleft-resident molecule that has been recently described as an important protein for the trafficking of PfEMP-1 to infected erythrocyte membrane, a ...
Probing the interaction of brain fatty acid binding protein (B-FABP) with model membranes
(Public Library of Science - PLOSSan Francisco, 2013-03)
Brain fatty acid-binding protein (B-FABP) interacts with biological membranes and delivers polyunsaturated fatty acids (FAs) via a collisional mechanism. The binding of FAs in the protein and the interaction with membranes ...
Human Sialidase Neu3 is S-Acylated and behaves like an integral membrane protein
(Nature Publishing Group, 2017-06)
Membrane-bound sialidase Neu3 is involved in the catabolism of glycoconjugates, and plays crucial roles in numerous biological processes. Since the mechanism of its association with membranes is still not completely ...
