Journal ArticleDOI

BAR domains as sensors of membrane curvature: the amphiphysin BAR structure

TL;DR: The structure of the Drosophila amphiphysin BAR domain is solved and it is predicted that BAR domains are in many protein families, including sorting nexins, centaurins, and oligophrenins.
Journal ArticleDOI

Curvature of clathrin-coated pits driven by epsin

TL;DR: It is shown here that epsin 1 directly modifies membrane curvature on binding to PtdIns(4,5)P2 in conjunction with clathrin polymerization, and it is proposed that this helix is inserted into one leaflet of the lipid bilayer, inducing curvature.
Journal ArticleDOI

Comparative gene expression profiles following UV exposure in wild-type and SOS-deficient Escherichia coli.

TL;DR: The time courses of expression of the genes surrounding the 26 documented lexA-regulated regions on the E. coli chromosome are reported here and several newly identified UV-responsive genes are discussed with respect to their possible roles in cellular recovery following exposure to UV irradiation.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sorting Nexin-1 Mediates Tubular Endosome-to-TGN Transport through Coincidence Sensing of High- Curvature Membranes and 3-Phosphoinositides

TL;DR: The data support an evolutionarily conserved function for SNX1 from yeast to mammals and provide functional insight into the molecular mechanisms underlying lipid-mediated protein targeting and tubular-based protein sorting.
Journal ArticleDOI

Potential for Range Expansion of Mountain Pine Beetle into the Boreal Forest of North America

TL;DR: The potential for mountain pine beetle to expand its historical range in North America from west of the continental divide into the eastern boreal forest was assessed on the basis of analyses of the effects of climate and weather on brood development and survival, and key aspects of the interaction of mountain pine beetles with its hosts and associated organisms.
