The smaller form of the autoantigen glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD65 (formerly the 64,000 Mr autoantigen), is a major target of humoral autoimmunity in type I diabetes. Human autoantisera have been used extensively to characterize the GAD65 antigen in bo ...
Aerolysin is one of a large group of bacterial proteins that can kill target cells by forming discrete channels in their plasma membranes. The toxin has many properties in common with the porins of the Gram-negative bacterial outer membrane, including an e ...
Pore-forming toxins, such as colicin A, are water-soluble proteins that insert into lipid bilayers. The water-soluble structure of Colicin A is known at a high resolution and this review describes the kinetic and structural steps involved in its soluble-to ...
Purified mitochondrial creatine kinase (Mi-CK) (EC 2.7.3.2) from chicken heart was shown to interact simultaneously with purified inner and outer mitochondrial membranes, thereby creating an intermembrane chondrial membranes, thereby creating an intermembr ...

In the rabbit nephron, the luminal membrane surface area of the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) is more than twice that of the proximal straight tubule (PST). What seemed to be an increase in histological specialization in solute and water transport is cu ...
A new method was presented to investigate the interactions between membrane receptors and their ligands in an artificial, reconstituted membrane system. Lipid bilayers were anchored via covalently attached thiolipids to TiO2/SiO2 waveguide surfaces to prod ...
The smaller isoform of the GABA synthesizing enzyme glutamic acid decarboxylase, GAD65, is synthesized as a soluble protein that undergoes posttranslational modification(s) in the NH2-terminal region to become anchored to the membrane of small synaptic-lik ...
The phospholipid topology of the outer membrane of intact rat liver mitochondria and derived outer membrane vesicles was investigated by determining the accessible pool of the various phospholipid classes towards phospholipase A2, a phosphatidylcholine-spe ...
The 64-kDa pancreatic beta-cell autoantigen, which is a target of autoantibodies associated with early as well as progressive stages of beta-cell destruction, resulting in insulin-dependent diabetes (IDDM) in humans, has been identified as the gamma-aminob ...
The water permeability of ADH target epithelial cells is believed to be regulated by a cycle of exo-endocytosis of vesicles containing functional water channels. These vesicles were selectively labeled in intact frog urinary bladders with an impermeant flu ...
