Membrane proteins are proteins found in cell membranes, either at the surface or on intracellular organelles. Integral membrane proteins such as receptors and ion channels span the membrane.

It was the early 2000s, and Mukherjee was working in Dennis Shields’s lab at Albert Einstein College of Medicine, studying how cells organize the internal transport of proteins ... of membrane ...

In the inactive conformation, the a-subunit of the G protein binds to GDP and is bound to a beta-gamma complex (a). Upon receptor activation by its ligand, there is an exchange of GDP for GTP (b).

Researchers compared the effects of RNA molecules delivered by EVs with and without the membrane ... Extracellular vesicles carry proteins and other molecules from donor to recipient cells to ...

Various microbes, including several human pathogens, hijack the cell’s skeleton, membranes, and protein-making machinery to make themselves at home. Intracellular bacteria use various tricks ... a ...

Eukaryotic and prokaryotic cells produce minute (40-1000 nm) membrane vesicles that are released into the local environment. These extracellular vesicles (EVs), including exosomes and microvesicles, ...
