Activation of signaling receptors: do ligands bind to receptor monomer, dimer, or both?
Xiaodong Pang, Huan-Xiang Zhou BMC Biophysics 2013, 6 :7 (3 June 2013)

|
Editor’s summary
Xiaodong Pang and Huan-Xiang Zhou discuss a recent study in BMC Biophysics that sheds new light on mechanisms of receptor activation, and argue that coexistence of monomers and dimers may be common for cell surface receptors.

Single-molecule photobleaching reveals increased MET receptor dimerization upon ligand binding in intact cells

Editor’s summary
Single-molecule photobleaching reveals that the MET receptor exists as both dimers and monomers on cell membranes in the absence of a ligand, with the proportion of dimers increasing significantly upon ligand binding.

Editor’s summary
Tightly-bound lipid molecules and lipids in the annular shell interact with membrane proteins in a similar manner, largely explained by general lipophilicity, that suggests a common pattern of lipid tail-amino acid interactions

Thermotropic phase behavior and headgroup interactions of the nonbilayer lipids phosphatidylethanolamine and monogalactosyldiacylglycerol in the dry state

Editor’s summary
The thermotropic phase behavior and molecular interactions of the two biologically important non-bilayer lipids, egg phosphatidylethanolamine (EPE) and monogalactosyldiacylglycerol (MGDG) have been comprehensively characterized by Fourier-transform Infrared spectroscopy and Differential Scanning Calorimetry.
