The degradation of membrane proteins from the mammalian endoplasmic reticulum
Membrane glycoproteins of the secretory pathway that cannot adopt their native conformation are targeted for dislocation from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membrane for subsequent degradation by the cytosolic proteasome. This thesis investigates factors influencing the catalyzed destruction of MHC …

Structure studies of the human class II major histocompatibility complex protein HLA-DR1
… Complex (MHC) proteins are heterodimeric membrane glycoproteins that bind antigens in the form of short peptides within the cell and present them to the T cell receptors on the surface T cells. In this thesis work, the structural aspects of the human class II MHC protein HLA-DR1 in complex …

Role of scavenger receptor MARCO in particle uptake and lung inflammation
… Previous studies have indicated the role of membrane glycoproteins called scavenger receptors in binding of environmental particles. The scavenger receptors are classified into different classes (A-H) based on their structure and function. Class A scavenger receptors are critical in uptake of …

Variability of Cholesterol Accessibility in Human Red Blood Cells Measured Using a Bacterial Cholesterol Binding Toxin
… into accessible and sequestered pools in cell membranes. Here, we describe a new assay using fluorescently-tagged anthrolysin O, a cholesterol-binding bacterial toxin, to measure accessible cholesterol in human red blood cells (RBCs). Accessible cholesterol levels were stable within …
