Transmembrane protein sorting driven by membrane curvature.
The intricate structure of prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells depends on the ability to target proteins to specific cellular locations. In most cases, we have a poor understanding of the underlying mechanisms. A typical example is the assembly of bacterial chemoreceptors at cell poles. Here we show that the classical chemoreceptor TlpA of Bacillus subtilis does not localize according to the conse...
متن کاملSynaptobrevin transmembrane domain influences exocytosis by perturbing vesicle membrane curvature.
Membrane fusion requires that nearly flat lipid bilayers deform into shapes with very high curvature. This makes membrane bending a critical force in determining fusion mechanisms. A lipid bilayer will bend spontaneously when material is distributed asymmetrically between its two monolayers, and its spontaneous curvature (C0) will influence the stability of curved fusion intermediates. Prior wo...
متن کاملAn investigation of the effect of membrane curvature on transmembrane-domain dependent protein sorting in lipid bilayers
Sorting of membrane proteins within the secretory pathway of eukaryotic cells is a complex process involving discrete sorting signals as well as physico-chemical properties of the transmembrane domain (TMD). Previous work demonstrated that tail-anchored (TA) protein sorting at the interface between the Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) and the Golgi complex is exquisitely dependent on the length and h...
متن کاملOn Curvature Driven Rotational Diffusion of Protein on Membrane Surface
Abstract. Morphological dynamics of bilayer membrane is intrinsically coupled to the translational and orientational localization of membrane proteins. In this paper we are concerned with the orientational localization of membrane proteins in the absence of protein interaction and correlation. Entropic energy depending on the angular distribution function and the curvature energy depending on t...
متن کاملSorting of integral membrane proteins mediated by curvature-dependent protein-lipid bilayer interaction.
Cell membrane proteins, both bound and integral, are known to preferentially accumulate at membrane locations with curvatures favorable to their shape. This is mainly due to the curvature dependent interaction between membrane proteins and their lipid environment. Here, we analyze the effects of the protein-lipid bilayer interaction energy due to mismatch between the protein shape and the princ...
