Annexin-V stabilizes membrane defects by inducing lipid phase transition
Annexins are cytoplasmic proteins, which bind to membranes exposing negatively charged phospholipids in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Here the authors use high-speed atomic force microscopy and other techniques to show that annexin-V self-assembles into highly structured lattices that lead to a membrane...

Sumario: | Annexins are cytoplasmic proteins, which bind to membranes exposing negatively charged phospholipids in a Ca2+-dependent manner. Here the authors use high-speed atomic force microscopy and other techniques to show that annexin-V self-assembles into highly structured lattices that lead to a membrane phase transition on PS-rich membranes. |
