Aggregation and vesiculation of membrane proteins by curvature-mediated interactions

Article Abstract:

Coarse-grained membrane simulations are used for showing that curvature-inducing model proteins adsorbed on lipid bilayer members can experience attractive interactions that originate purely as a result of membrane curvature. The curvature-mediated attraction can operate between proteins lacking any specific interactions like newly synthesized and still immature membrane proteins in the endoplasmic reticulum.

Solving the membrane protein folding problem

Article Abstract:

The challenges for molecular biologists is to learn about protein sequences to define its three dimensional structure where it is more difficult for membrane proteins as it is not known about the appearance. The membrane protein folding problem probably follows the two stages which accurately predict the location and topology of the inserted segment and to fold the chain from the starting point.

Evolutionary conservation of biogenesis of beta-barrel membrane proteins

Article Abstract:

The presence of the beta-barrel membrane proteins distinguishes the outer membrane of mitochondria and chloroplasts. A protein complex that is needed for the topogenesis of mitochondrial outer membrane beta-barrel protein is described.
