Autophagy protein LC3C binding to phospholipid and interaction with lipid membranes
(Elsevier, 2022-05-23)
Autophagy is a process in which parts of the eukaryotic cell are selectively degraded in the lysosome. The materials to be catabolized are first surrounded by a double-membrane structure, the autophagosome. Autophagosome ...
Liquid-crystalline, liquid-ordered, rippled and gel lipid bilayer phases as observed with nile red fluorescence
(Elsevier, 2022-10)
The basic matrix of cellular membranes consists of a double layer (bilayer) of phospholipids. Semisynthetic lipid bilayers are commonly used in biophysical studies of membranes. According to tem-perature and composition, ...
LC3 subfamily in cardiolipin-mediated mitophagy: a comparison of the LC3A, LC3B and LC3C homologs
(Taylor & Francis, 2022-12)
Externalization of the phospholipid cardiolipin (CL) to the outer mitochondrial membrane has been proposed to act as a mitophagy trigger. CL would act as a signal for binding the LC3 macroauto-phagy/autophagy proteins. As ...
Patches and Blebs: A Comparative Study of the Composition and Biophysical Properties of Two Plasma Membrane Preparations from CHO Cells
(MDPI, 2020-04-10)
This study was aimed at preparing and characterizing plasma membranes (PM) from Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells. Two methods of PM preparation were applied, one based on adhering cells to a poly-lysine-coated surface, ...
Molecular recognition of a membrane-anchored HIV-1 pan-neutralizing epitope.
(Nature, 2022)
Antibodies against the carboxy-terminal section of the membrane-proximal external region (C-MPER) of the HIV-1 envelope glycoprotein (Env) are considered as nearly pan-neutralizing. Development of vaccines capable of ...
Synthesis of advanced bio-based green materials from renewable biopolymers
(Elsevier, 2021-01-30)
Polymeric materials such as hydrogels have become necessary in our daily lives. Hydrogels are three-dimensionally cross-linked polymeric networks that can absorb large amounts of water. Thanks to their properties, hydrogels ...

Long-Term Freezing Temperatures Frequency Change Effect on Wind Energy Gain (Eurasia and North America, 1950 & 2019)
(MDPI, 2022-05-07)
The persistent freezing conditions in cold regions are the cause of ice accretion on mechanical and instrumental elements of wind turbines. Consequently, remarkable Annual Energy Production (AEP) losses are prone to occur ...
Nucleophosmin interaction with APE1: Insights into DNA repair regulation
(Elsevier, 2020-01-30)
[EN] Nucleophosmin (NPM1), an abundant, nucleolar protein with multiple functions affecting cell homeostasis, has also been recently involved in DNA damage repair. The roles of NPM1 in different repair pathways remain ...
