Vimentin fibers terminate at the nuclear membrane and at desmosomes, or adhesion plaques, on the plasma membrane. |
The antigen was more abundant in the zone adjacent to the plasma membrane than in the zone closer to the external wall surface. |
Once inside the plant, an infolded plasma membrane forms around the bacterium to produce an infection thread. |
Also, formation of endocytotic vesicles at the plasma membrane involves proteins that can severely bend membranes. |
The catalytic domain faces the exterior of the plasma membrane and is anchored by a transmembrane-spanning domain. |
In places the fine filaments run on top of the thicker filaments, and are thus closer to the plasma membrane. |
