Analysis of lipid-composition changes in plasma membrane microdomains.
Sphingolipids accumulate in plasma membrane microdomain sites, such as caveolae or lipid rafts. Such microdomains are considered to be important nexuses for signal transduction, although changes in the microdomain lipid components brought about by signaling are poorly understood. Here, we applied a cationic colloidal silica bead method to analyze plasma membrane lipids from monolayer cells cult...
متن کاملSpatiotemporal analysis of differential Akt regulation in plasma membrane microdomains.
As a central kinase in the phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase pathway, Akt has been the subject of extensive research; yet, spatiotemporal regulation of Akt in different membrane microdomains remains largely unknown. To examine dynamic Akt activity in membrane microdomains in living cells, we developed a specific and sensitive fluorescence resonance energy transfer-based Akt activity reporter, AktAR...
متن کاملImaging Lipid Microdomains in a Microfluidic Bilayer Lipid Membrane Chip
A microfluidic bilayer lipid membrane (BLM) system supporting correlated opto-electrical membrane characterization has been developed and applied to the imaging of phase-separated lipid microdomains by confocal microscopy. The device consists of a microfluidic network supporting rapid perfusion fabricated in a thermoplastic substrate, bonded to a thin PVDC partition and supported by a thin cove...
متن کاملChanges in plasma-membrane lipid composition: a strategy for acclimation to copper stress.
Wheat seedlings were grown hydroponically in the presence of 50 microM Cu2+. The copper stress resulted in plasma-membrane (PM) changes of the root cells as altered lipid composition, a decreased phosphatidylcholine (PC)/phosphatidylethanolamine (PE) ratio from 0.7 to 0.3, a decreased fatty acyl unsaturation and a decrease in the lipid/protein ratio. Membrane vesicles made from total lipid extr...
متن کاملRole of plasma membrane lipid microdomains in respiratory syncytial virus filament formation.
The fusion protein (F) of respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) is the envelope glycoprotein responsible for the characteristic cytopathology of syncytium formation. RSV has been shown to bud from selective areas of the plasma membrane as pleomorphic virions, including both filamentous and round particles. With immunofluorescent microscopy, we demonstrated evidence of RSV filaments incorporating th...
