Transporters carry a molecule (such as glucose) from one side of the plasma membrane to the other ... structures with extracellular structures. Protein surfaces are designed for interaction.

In this diagram of G-protein-coupled receptor activation, the alpha, beta, and gamma subunits are shown with distinct relationships to the plasma membrane. After exchange of GDP with GTP on the ...

Oregon Health & Science University, in collaboration with Oregon State University, has discovered the structural organization and protein components ... of ER–plasma membrane contact sites.

He particularly questioned the role of the endomembrane system, a network of membranous structures within the cell involved in protein processing and transport, in trafficking SNX33 to specific plasma ...
