Journal ArticleDOI

Liquid-Liquid Immiscibility in Membranes

TL;DR: The properties of defined cholesterol-phospholipid mixtures provide a conceptual foundation for the exploration of a number of aspects of the biophysics and biochemistry of animal cell membranes.
Journal ArticleDOI

Translational diffusion of individual class II MHC membrane proteins in cells.

TL;DR: This study finds no strong evidence for significant confinement of either GPI-linked or native I-E(k) in the plasma membrane of CHO cells, and analyses show that motion is predominantly Brownian.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-molecule FRET-derived model of the synaptotagmin 1-SNARE fusion complex.

TL;DR: An experimentally determined model of the elusive Syt1–SNARE complex is obtained using a multibody docking approach with 34 FRET-derived distances as restraints, suggesting a common mechanism by which the interaction between synaptotagmins and SNAREs aids in Ca2+-triggered fusion.
Journal ArticleDOI

In vitro system capable of differentiating fast Ca2+-triggered content mixing from lipid exchange for mechanistic studies of neurotransmitter release

TL;DR: An in vitro system with reconstituted synaptic proteins that meets the long-sought goal to produce fast content release in the millisecond time regime upon Ca2+ triggering and shows that the combination of SNAREs with synaptotagmin lowers the activation barriers to full fusion, and that complexin enhances this kinetic control.
