How can you use “membrane” in a sentence? Here are some example sentences to help you improve your vocabulary:
It has long been known that infection by HIV-1 commonly leads to the down-regulation and the disappearance of CD4 receptors from the plasma membrane, a phenomenon referred to as receptor down-modulation.
When antibodies were used to locate proteins of the TIP group, the signal was always confined to tonoplast membrane fractions [ 72].
However, over the course of the single cell experiments we noticed that BAECs treated with MTX not only accumulate vital dyes, but also undergo an enormous reorganization of the plasma membrane to form giant membrane blebs.
In response to receptor activation, Syk becomes non-covalently associated with the BCR through tandem SH2 domains located in the amino terminal half of the protein [ 44 ] . Following engagement of the BCR, phosphorylation of specific tyrosine residues in immunoreceptor tyrosine-based activation motifs (ITAMs) found within the cytoplasmic tails of CD79a and CD79b provides docking sites for Syk localization [ 45 46 47 ] . The ability of phosphorylated ITAM peptides to selectively enhance Syk kinase activity in vitro suggests that recruitment of Syk to the receptor complex may serve to activate the kinase, in part, through allosteric changes in the structure of the Syk protein [ 44 48 49 ] . Upon activation, Syk and the receptor complex become localized in detergent-resistant cholesterol-rich membrane microdomains (lipid rafts), resulting in the segregation of the BCR complex from other membrane components [ 50 ] .
All procedures were published previously [ 6 20 ] . In brief, protein samples of 25 μg in 2 × sodium dodecylsulfate loading buffer were fractionated by 10% sodium dodecylsulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis at 100 V. The proteins were transferred onto 0.45-μm pore nitrocellulose membrane (Schleicher & Schuell, Keene, NH) at 40 V for 45 to 60 minutes.
