The spatial organization of cell membrane glycoproteins and glycolipids is critical for
mediating the binding of ligands, receptors, and macromolecules on the plasma membrane …

Cells mediate interactions with the extracellular environment through a crowded assembly of
transmembrane proteins, glycoproteins and glycolipids on their plasma membrane. The …

Cellular membranes are typically decorated with a plethora of embedded and adsorbed
macromolecules, eg proteins, that participate in numerous vital processes. With typical …

Probing the oligomeric state of abundant molecules, such as membrane proteins in intact
cells, is essential, but has not been straightforward. We address this challenge with a simple …

Association of proteins to cellular membranes is involved in various biological processes.
Various theoretical models have been developed to describe this adsorption mechanism …

Membrane interfaces formed at cell–cell junctions are associated with characteristic patterns
of membrane proteins whose organization is critical for intracellular signalling. To isolate the …

Nanoscale molecular clusters in cell membranes can serve as platforms to recruit
membrane proteins for various biological functions. A central question is how these …

Junctions between lipid membranes make possible cell-free explorations of physical
mechanisms that can contribute to protein and lipid organization at a variety of biophysical …

Membranes are the defining envelopes of living cells. At this boundary a multitude of
transmembrane proteins mediate signal and mass transfer between cells and their …

The plasma membrane consists of a variety of discrete domains differing from the
surrounding membrane in composition and properties. Selective partitioning of protein to …
