Insertion of Multi-pass Transmembrane Proteins in the RER01:29

Insertion of Multi-pass Transmembrane Proteins in the RER

The rough ER membrane synthesizes, assembles, and embeds transmembrane proteins in diverse topologies. These proteins function as transporters or channels and can remain in the ER membrane or are sent to the Golgi complex, lysosome, and cell membrane.
The multipass transmembrane proteins are the type IV integral membrane proteins with multiple topogenic sequences determining their spatial arrangement in the ER membrane. Nearly all multipass proteins lack a cleavable signal sequence and use...
Multi-pass Transmembrane Proteins and β-barrels01:09

Multi-pass Transmembrane Proteins and β-barrels

In multi-pass transmembrane proteins, the polypeptide chain crosses the membrane more than once. The transmembrane polypeptide chain either forms an α-helix or β-strand structure. α-Helix containing multi-pass transmembrane proteins are ubiquitous, whereas β-strand containing ones are mainly found in gram-negative bacteria, mitochondria, and chloroplasts.

Multi-pass transmembrane proteins such as G-protein-linked receptors (GPCRs) and...
Polymer Classification: Stereospecificity01:26

Polymer Classification: Stereospecificity

Polymerization generates chiral centers along the entire backbone of a polymer chain. Accordingly, the stereochemistry of the substituent group has a significant effect on polymer properties. Polymers formed from monosubstituted alkene monomers feature chiral carbons at every alternate position in the polymer backbone. Relative to the predominant orientation of substituents at the adjacent chiral carbons, the polymer can exist in three different configurations: isotactic, syndiotactic, and...

Area of Science:

  • Genomics
  • Bioinformatics
  • Computational Biology

Background:

  • Spatial transcriptomics offers in situ gene expression but faces trade-offs in resolution, depth, and sample size.
  • Current methods integrating image segmentation are limited by imaging quality and tissue heterogeneity.
  • Array-based technologies provide whole-transcriptome data at subcellular resolution, but lack cell annotation tools.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To develop a novel multiscale computational framework for automated cell type classification using spatial transcriptomics.
  • To leverage both transcriptomic and spatial context for subcellular-level cell identification.
  • To create a generalizable pipeline applicable to diverse spatial transcriptomics platforms.

Main Methods:

  • A multiscale approach combining transcriptomic data and spatial context for cell classification.
  • Application to targeted and whole-transcriptome spatial platforms.
  • Integration with multiparameter persistent homology for topological analysis of cell spatial relationships.

Main Results:

  • Improved cell classification and morphology analysis in human kidney tissue.
  • Accurate pinpointing of sparsely distributed mouse renal immune cells without image data.
  • Identification of cell spatial relationships in a mouse model of lupus nephritis, validated experimentally.

Conclusions:

  • The proposed framework enables automated, high-resolution cell type identification from spatial transcriptomics data.
  • It overcomes limitations of image-based methods and generalizes across different technologies.
  • This pipeline bridges gene expression and tissue-level organization for biological discovery.
