The transmembrane domain of syntaxin 1A is critical for cytoplasmic domain protein-protein interactions.
Assembly of the plasma membrane proteins syntaxin 1A and SNAP-25 with the vesicle protein synaptobrevin is a critical step in neuronal exocytosis. Syntaxin is anchored to the inner face of presynaptic plasma membrane via a single C-terminal membrane-spanning domain. Here we report that this transmembrane domain plays a critical role in a wide range of syntaxin protein-protein interactions. Trun...
متن کاملSyntaxin 1A inhibits CFTR chloride channels by means of domain-specific protein-protein interactions.
Previously we showed that the functional activity of the epithelial chloride channel that is encoded by the cystic fibrosis gene (CFTR) is reciprocally modulated by two components of the vesicle fusion machinery, syntaxin 1A and Munc-18. Here we report that syntaxin 1A inhibits CFTR chloride channels by means of direct and domain-specific protein-protein interactions. Syntaxin 1A stoichiometric...
متن کاملRat ovarian lutropin receptor is a transmembrane protein. Evidence for an Mr-20,000 cytoplasmic domain.
Membrane topography of the rat ovarian lutropin receptor was studied by two different approaches. Ovarian membrane preparation, labelled with 125I-labelled human choriogonadotropin in vivo, was subjected to extensive chymotryptic digestion. The soluble and membrane-bound radioactive complexes were cross-linked with glutaraldehyde, and analysed by SDS/polyacrylamide-gel electrophoresis and autor...
متن کاملThe cytoplasmic domain of the myelin P0 protein influences the adhesive interactions of its extracellular domain
The extracellular domain of the myelin P0 protein is believed to engage in adhesive interactions and thus hold the myelin membrane compact. We have previously shown that P0 can behave as a homophilic adhesion molecule through interactions of its extracellular domains (Filbin, M. T., F. S. Walsh, B. D. Trapp, J. A. Pizzey, and G. I. Tennekoon. 1990. Nature (Lond.) 344:871-872). To determine if t...
متن کاملThe ER membrane protein complex is a transmembrane domain insertase.
Insertion of proteins into membranes is an essential cellular process. The extensive biophysical and topological diversity of membrane proteins necessitates multiple insertion pathways that remain incompletely defined. Here we found that known membrane insertion pathways fail to effectively engage tail-anchored membrane proteins with moderately hydrophobic transmembrane domains. These proteins ...
