Annexins are Ca 2+ and phospholipid binding proteins forming an evolutionary conserved
multigene family with members of the family being expressed throughout animal and plant …

Formation of the apical surface and lumen is a fundamental, yet poorly understood, step in
epithelial organ development. We show that PTEN localizes to the apical plasma membrane …

We have used an in vitro assay to follow the proteins transferred from a donor to an acceptor
upon fusion of early endosomes. The acceptor was a purified early endosomal fraction …

Eukaryotic cells contain various Ca 2+ -effector proteins that mediate cellular responses to
changes in intracellular Ca 2+ levels. A unique class of these proteins — annexins — can …

Annexins are a well-known multigene family of Ca 2+ -regulated phospholipid-binding and
membrane-binding proteins. Recent work employing annexin-knockdown or - knockout …

Membrane vesicles derived from the apical side of procine intestinal epithelial cells retain,
after demembranation in the presence of calcium, two major proteins (I, II) which are released …

CD44, the major cell surface receptor for hyaluronic acid (HA), was shown to localize to
detergent-resistant cholesterol-rich microdomains, called lipid rafts, in fibroblasts and blood cells…

MRP14 (S100A9) is the major calcium-binding protein of neutrophils and monocytes.
Targeted gene disruption reveals an essential role of this S100 protein for transendothelial …

Intracellular Ca2q signalling and Ca2q homeostasis are among the central problems in cell
biology that have received major attention for a number of decades. Fascinating and intricate …

The glucocorticoid-regulated protein annexin I (lipocortin I) has been shown to mediate
antiinflammatory activities of glucocorticoids, but the molecular basis of its action has remained …
