Researchers in Bochum have discovered a control mechanism that may also operate beyond plants. Proteins carrying a "tail anchor" must be inserted into the ER membrane before they can fulfill their ...

Researchers have made a significant new discovery about RNA (ribonucleic acid) viruses and how they replicate themselves. Certain RNA viruses -- poliovirus, hepatitis C virus and coxsackievirus -- and ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract An apical plasma membrane domain enriched in the regulatory phospholipid phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate [PtdIns(4,5)P2] is critical for ...

Proteins carrying a “tail anchor” must be inserted into the ER membrane before they can fulfill their cellular roles. In plants, this task is carried out by the Guided Entry of Tail-Anchored proteins ...
