GPI-anchored proteins are organized in submicron domains at the cell surface

TL;DR: The results indicate that lipid-linked proteins are organized in cholesterol-dependent submicron-sized domains, which are likely to be less than 70 nm in diameter and are disrupted by removal of cellular cholesterol.
Journal ArticleDOI

Lipid rafts bringing order to chaos

TL;DR: The role of lipid rafts in signaling via receptor tyrosine kinases and G protein-coupled receptors is summarized and studies that have helped to elucidate the role are summarized.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mediators of innate immune recognition of bacteria concentrate in lipid rafts and facilitate lipopolysaccharide-induced cell activation.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the entire bacterial recognition system is based around the ligation of CD14 by bacterial components and the recruitment of multiple signalling molecules, such as hsp70, hsp90, CXCR4, GDF5 and TLR4, within the lipid rafts.
Journal ArticleDOI

Single-molecule microscopy on model membranes reveals anomalous diffusion

TL;DR: A new type of analysis for tracking data by making use of the probability distribution of square displacements is presented, which characterizes the so-called immobile fraction often found in FRAP experiments.
Journal ArticleDOI

The Fluid—Mosaic Model of Membrane Structure: Still relevant to understanding the structure, function and dynamics of biological membranes after more than 40 years

TL;DR: In updated versions of the model more emphasis has been placed on the mosaic nature of the macrostructure of cellular membranes where many protein and lipid components are limited in their rotational and lateral motilities in the membrane plane, especially in their natural states.

The fluid mosaic model of the structure of cell membranes.

TL;DR: Results strongly indicate that the bivalent antibodies produce an aggregation of the surface immunoglobulin molecules in the plane of the membrane, which can occur only if the immunoglOBulin molecules are free to diffuse in the membrane.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sorting of GPI-anchored proteins to glycolipid-enriched membrane subdomains during transport to the apical cell surface

TL;DR: It is shown that a protein with a glycosylphosphatidyl inositol (GPI) anchor can be recovered from lysates of epithelial cells in a low density, detergent-insoluble form, supporting the model proposed by Simons and colleagues for sorting of certain membrane proteins to the apical surface after intracellular association with glycosphingolipids.
Journal ArticleDOI

Biological applications of optical forces

TL;DR: Theories and Applications of Picotensiometry, Foundations of Trup Stiffness Measurements, and more.
Journal ArticleDOI

Confined lateral diffusion of membrane receptors as studied by single particle tracking (nanovid microscopy). Effects of calcium-induced differentiation in cultured epithelial cells.

TL;DR: In this article, the trajectories of E-cadherin, epidermal growth factor receptor, and transferrin receptor in the plasma membrane of a cultured mouse keratinocyte cell line were studied using both single particle tracking (SPT; nanovid microscopy) and fluorescence photobleaching recovery (FPR).
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of the FGF receptor underlies neurite outgrowth stimulated by L1, N-CAM, and N-cadherin

TL;DR: Evidence is presented that implicates activation of the fibroblast growth factor receptor (FGFR) in the pathway underlying neurite outgrowth stimulated by L1, N-CAM, and N-cadherin, and a CAM homology domain in the FGF family of receptors is identified.
