Abstract excerpt
Annexins are soluble proteins that are best known for their ability to undergo reversible Ca(2+)-dependent binding to the surface of phospholipid bilayers. Recent studies, however, have shown that annexins also reversibly bind to membranes in a Ca(2+)-independent manner at mildly acidic pH. We investigated the structural changes that occur upon pH-dependent membrane binding by performing a nitroxide scan on the...
