Modeling the Sterol-Binding Domain of Aster-A Provides Insight into Its Multiligand Specificity.

TL;DR: This study uses a range of computational tools to study the molecular mechanisms underlying sterol binding as well as multi-sterol ligand specificity of Aster-A and defines a possible molecular path for sterol release.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective visualization of fluorescent sterols in Caenorhabditis elegans

TL;DR: The objective was to establish an experimental procedure and show direct AFM measurements that unequivocally can be assigned as a type of “spatially distinct signal-to-noise ratio” between the EMTs and the HBMs.
Journal ArticleDOI

Design, Synthesis, and Evaluation of a Luminescent Cholesterol Mimic

TL;DR: The development of new chemical tools with improved properties is essential to chemical and cell biology as mentioned in this paper, and of particular interest is the development of mimics of small molecules with important cell functions.
Journal ArticleDOI

Steady state analysis of influx and transbilayer distribution of ergosterol in the yeast plasma membrane.

TL;DR: A steady state model is presented that can account for the observed sterol asymmetry in the yeast PM, the strong sterol gradient between PM and ER and threshold-like expansion of ER sterol for increasing sterol influx into the PM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Photophysical and Structural Characterization of Intrinsically Fluorescent Sterol Aggregates.

TL;DR: In this article, the photophysical and structural properties of dehydroergosterol (DHE) in the aggregated state were studied. And the authors showed that DHE can be used to study sterol aggregation by fluorescence spectroscopy and microscopy.
