Epithelia are multicompartment and multicomponent systems performing transcellular and
paracellular transport in a very complex manner. One way to get a deeper understanding of …

Adeno-associated viruses (AAV) are ubiquitous in the human population (> 90% of adults
are seropositive) but have never been implicated as the cause of any disease. They were …

A summary of current methodologies employed to obtain and characterize epithelial plasma
membrane vesicles is presented. Particular emphasis is placed on techniques to evaluate …

A membrane preparation enriched in the basolateral segment of the plasma membrane was
isolated from the rat renal cortex by a procedure that included separation of particulates on a …

Phospholipase C (PL-C) mediates transduction of neurotransmitter signals across
membranes via hydrolysis of phosphatidylinositol-4, 5-bisphosphate (PIP 2), leading to …

Supramolecular Enzyme Organization: Quaternary Structure and Beyond provides a
