Pocanschi C, Kleinschmidt J
J Membr Biol . 2022 May; 255(4-5):485-502. PMID: 35552784
Extraction of integral membrane proteins into detergents for structural and functional studies often leads to a strong loss in protein stability. The impact of the lipid bilayer on the thermodynamic...

Pocanschi C, Ehsani S, Mehrabian M, Wille H, Reginold W, Trimble W, et al.
PLoS One . 2013 Sep; 8(9):e72446. PMID: 24039764
The cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) was recently observed to co-purify with members of the LIV-1 subfamily of ZIP zinc transporters (LZTs), precipitating the surprising discovery that the prion gene family...

Pocanschi C, Popot J, Kleinschmidt J
Eur Biophys J . 2013 Feb; 42(2-3):103-18. PMID: 23370791
Amphipols are a class of amphipathic polymers designed to maintain membrane proteins in aqueous solutions in the absence of detergents. Denatured β-barrel membrane proteins, like outer membrane proteins OmpA from...

Ehsani S, Salehzadeh A, Huo H, Reginold W, Pocanschi C, Ren H, et al.
J Mol Biol . 2012 Jun; 422(4):556-574. PMID: 22687393
We recently documented the co-purification of members of the LIV-1 subfamily of ZIP (Zrt-, Irt-like Protein) zinc transporters (LZTs) with the cellular prion protein (PrP(C)) and, subsequently, established that the...

Ehsani S, Mehrabian M, Pocanschi C, Schmitt-Ulms G
Prion . 2012 May; 6(4):317-21. PMID: 22575750
The evolutionary origins of vertebrate prion genes had remained elusive until recently when multiple lines of evidence converged to the proposition that members of the prion gene family represent an...

Ehsani S, Tao R, Pocanschi C, Ren H, Harrison P, Schmitt-Ulms G
PLoS One . 2011 Nov; 6(10):e26800. PMID: 22046361
The evolutionary origin of prion genes, only known to exist in the vertebrate lineage, had remained elusive until recently. Following a lead from interactome investigations of the murine prion protein,...

Pocanschi C, Kozlov G, Brockmeier U, Brockmeier A, Williams D, Gehring K
J Biol Chem . 2011 Jun; 286(31):27266-77. PMID: 21652723
Calreticulin and calnexin are key components in maintaining the quality control of glycoprotein folding within the endoplasmic reticulum. Although their lectin function of binding monoglucosylated sugar moieties of glycoproteins is...

Ehsani S, Huo H, Salehzadeh A, Pocanschi C, Watts J, Wille H, et al.
Prog Neurobiol . 2010 Dec; 93(3):405-20. PMID: 21163327
Prion diseases are fatal neurodegenerative diseases of humans and animals which, in addition to sporadic and familial modes of manifestation, can be acquired via an infectious route of propagation. In...

J Biol Chem . 2010 Oct; 285(49):38612-20. PMID: 20880849
The calnexin cycle is a process by which glycosylated proteins are subjected to folding cycles in the endoplasmic reticulum lumen via binding to the membrane protein calnexin (CNX) or to...
