  1. 1. Intracellular Membrane Remodeling Mechanisms Revealed by Cryo-EM

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för medicinsk cellbiologi

    Author : Sigrid Mack; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Endophilin B1 (EnB1) is a BAR protein located in the cytosol that controls membrane dynamics of different organelles such as the mitochondria and the Golgi, as well as autophagosomes. It has been suggested that this protein coordinates membrane remodeling events during essential cell death processes. READ MORE

  3. 2. Molecular Mechanisms of Endophilin B1-Bax Macromolecular Complexes in Membrane Permeabilization and Cell Death

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Author : Tobias Kollberg Hedström; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : A crucial step during apoptosis is the accumulation of the pro-apoptotic protein Bax on the mitochondria where it triggers permeabilization of the outer membrane. This causes the release of cytochrome c into the cytosol and is considered a point of no return in programmed cell death. READ MORE

  4. 3. Overexpression and purification of MSP2N2 for nanodisc assembly and reconstitution of TRPA1

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Examensarbeten i molekylärbiologi

    Author : Isabelle Bäckström; [2021]
    Keywords : Biology and Life Sciences;

    Abstract : Membrane proteins are important building blocks for several biochemical processes. The difficulty with membrane proteins is that they tend to be lowly expressed and can be difficult to manage. Therefore, membrane proteins are studied to a lesser extent than soluble proteins.
