This review examines some recent applications of fluorescence recovery after
photobleaching (FRAP) to biopolymers, while mainly focusing on membrane protein studies …

Most proteins have uneven distributions in the plasma membrane. Broadly speaking, this
may be caused by mechanisms specific to each protein, or may be a consequence of a …

During the orchestrated process leading to mature erythrocytes, reticulocytes must
synthesize large amounts of hemoglobin, while eliminating numerous cellular components …

Biological membranes allow morphological compartmentalization of cells and represent
complex micro-heterogeneous fluids exhibiting a range of dynamics. The plasma membrane …

Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor (EGFR) is an important target of anticancer therapy.
Nowadays, the search for new molecules inhibiting this receptor is turning toward natural …

Resolving the dynamical interplay of proteins and lipids in the live-cell plasma membrane
represents a central goal in current cell biology. Superresolution concepts have introduced a …

Immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICI), pembrolizumab and atezolizumab, were recently
approved for treatment‐refractory triple‐negative breast cancer (TNBC), where those with …

G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important membrane proteins in higher
eukaryotes that carry out a vast array of cellular signaling and act as major drug targets. The …

Techniques for analyzing the membrane diffusion of molecules are the most promising
methods for investigating the compartmentalization of G-protein-coupled receptors …

Diffusion obstacles in membranes have not been directly visualized because of fast
membrane dynamics and the occurrence of subresolution molecular complexes. To …
