Binding of peripheral proteins to mixed lipid membranes: effect of lipid demixing upon binding.
Binding isotherms have been determined for the association of horse heart cytochrome c with dioleoyl phosphatidylglycerol (DOPG)/dioleoyl phosphatidylcholine (DOPC) bilayer membranes over a range of lipid compositions and ionic strengths. In the absence of protein, the DOPG and DOPC lipids mix nearly ideally. The binding isotherms have been analyzed using double layer theory to account for the ...
متن کاملInvolvement of an Arginine Triplet in M1 Matrix Protein Interaction with Membranes and in M1 Recruitment into Virus-Like Particles of the Influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 Virus
The influenza A(H1N1)pdm09 virus caused the first influenza pandemic of the 21st century. In this study, we wanted to decipher the role of conserved basic residues of the viral M1 matrix protein in virus assembly and release. M1 plays many roles in the influenza virus replication cycle. Specifically, it participates in viral particle assembly, can associate with the viral ribonucleoprotein comp...
متن کاملConstruction of a Recombinant Bacmid DNA to Express Influenza Virus Matrix Protein1 (M1) in Insect Cell Line
Background and Aims: Virus-like particles (VLPs) have been suggested to be a promising recombinant vaccine approach. Several studies have reported that the influenza VLPs produced in insect cells is an effective vaccine candidate. Due to crucial role of matrix M1 protein in assembly and budding of Influenza particles, in all VLPs structures, M1 protein have been considered as a main component. ...
متن کاملBinding of prion proteins to lipid membranes.
A key molecular event in prion diseases is the conversion of the normal cellular form of the prion protein (PrPC) to an aberrant form known as the scrapie isoform, PrPSc. Under normal physiological conditions PrPC is attached to the outer leaflet of the plasma membrane via a GPI-anchor. It has been proposed that a direct interaction between PrP and lipid membranes could be involved in the conve...
متن کاملBinding of serotonin to lipid membranes.
Serotonin (5-hydroxytryptamine, 5-HT) is a prevalent neurotransmitter throughout the animal kingdom. It exerts its effect through the specific binding to the serotonin receptor, but recent research has suggested that neural transmission may also be affected by its nonspecific interactions with the lipid matrix of the synaptic membrane. However, membrane-5-HT interactions remain controversial an...
