Molecular Mechanisms Controlling Transmembrane Transport
Author: Eckhard BolesPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 9783540218371
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 432
Book Description
All living cells are strictly separated from their surroundings by a membranous lipid bilayer. Into these membranes a variety of transport proteins are embedded that ensure the uptake and secretion of various molecules and ions. In order to respond properly to a changing nutrient supply or demand, as well as to external stress factors, cells must be able to adapt both amount and activity of the corresponding transporters. This book provides readers with state-of-the-art knowledge on the various regulatory mechanisms that control transmembrane transporter expression, activity and their subcellular localisation.
Molecular Mechanisms of Water Transport Across Biological Membranes
Author: Wilfred D. SteinPublisher: Gulf Professional Publishing
ISBN: 9780123646194
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 472
Book Description
International Review of Cytology presents current advances and comprehensive reviews in cell biology--both plant and animal. Authored by some of the foremost scientists in the field, each volume provides up-to-date information and directions for future research. This volume looks at water movements from a wide range of levels. It examines how water interacts with the major components of the cell, including proteins and lipids. It discusses how water moves across cell membranes by diffusion, how it is chanelled across these membranes or, in certain cases, pumped across, and how water movements are controlled. This book demonstrates how water and ion movements are closely linked in order to provide a better understanding of their behavior. *Essential Physical chemistry of water at biological interfaces *Up-to-date reviews of water behavior in cells *Water in integrated systems *Current information on water channels across membranes

Book Description
The Proceedings of the 22nd Symposium of the Bari Meetings provides a comprehensive and timely record of the biochemical aspects of biomembrane transport. The vast field of biomembrane transport has made great strides towards the understanding of its mechanisms by the molecular approach. This book collects papers by young members of the biochemical community, concentrating on this specific aspect of biomembrane transport and comprising the most recent results in the area. More transport systems are being defined in terms of their catalysts, pumping systems and carriers. Further, the description of transport has advanced to describe its regulation, control and mechanisms by which energy drives transport. Transport systems in a variety of membranes such as cell membranes, mitochondria and bacteria are discussed. Thus, this volume describes major achievements and new openings of interest to scientists from a variety of fields involving biological transport.
Molecular Mechanisms of Membrane Traffic
Author: D. James MorrePublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 3662029286
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 417
Book Description
The study of membrane traffic in reconstituted cell-free systems has generated an unprecedented amount of new information on the biochemistry, molecular biology and genetics of membrane-based molecular events that underly normal and abnormal cellular function. Many of the individual steps have now been isolated and dissected in simple systems that permit detailed molecular analyses of transport mechanisms and their regulation. Reconstituted events of intercompartment transport include inter-membrane recognition, and controlled membrane fusion-fission reactions. Among the many advances is the growi ng awareness of a remarkabl e evolutionary conservation of many of the components involved in the many steps of membrane traffic, this realization has accelerated greatly the pace of progress in the field. This book provides a collection of participant contributions from the 1992 Summer Research Conference, "Mol ecul ar Mechani sms of Membrane Traffi c, " jointly sponsored with NATO by the American Society of Cell Biology. The conference was held May 9-13, at the Airlie Conference Center in the Virginia countryside, near Warrenton. The conference was attended by 158 scientists. A unique feature was the high proportion of young scientists among the participants. Approximately 65% were students, postdoctoral fe 11 ows and young investigators. Each attendee contri buted to the conference with either a pl atform or poster presentation.
