Basement membrane

Protein which is a component of the basement membrane, an extracellular matrix found under epithelial cells and around smooth and striated muscle cells. This matrix contains intrinsic macromolecular components such as collagen, laminin, and sulfated proteoglycans.

Cell membrane

Protein found in or associated with the cell membrane, a selectively permeable membrane which separates the cytoplasm from its surroundings. In most archaea, bacteria, fungi, plants, and algae the cell membrane is enclosed by at least the cell wall. Also used when it is not known if the protein is found in or associated with the inner or outer cell membrane.

Fusion of virus membrane with host cell membrane

Viral protein involved in the merging of the virus envelope with host plasma membrane during viral penetration into host cell. Virus fusion proteins drive this fusion reaction by undergoing a major conformational change that is triggered by interactions with the target cell. This pathway is used by viruses whose fusion protein is usually pH independent such as most paramyxoviruses, herpesviruses and retroviruses. MHV-JHM coronavirus has been shown to fuse directly with the host plasma membrane.

Fusion of virus membrane with host endosomal membrane

Viral protein involved in the merging of the virus envelope with host endosomal membrane during viral penetration into host cell. Viral fusion proteins drive this fusion reaction by undergoing a major conformational change that is triggered by interactions with the target cell. The specific trigger is mainly endosome acidification which induce activation of the fusion protein by conformational change. This pathway is used by enveloped viruses which are endocytosed and whose fusion protein is usually pH-dependent like influenza A virus, rhabdoviruses, bornaviruses, filoviruses, asfarviridae, flaviviridae, alphaviruses, HIV-1, avian leukosis virus, SARS, 229E, and MHV-2 coronaviruses.

Fusion of virus membrane with host membrane

Viral protein involved in the merging of the virion membrane with the host membrane during viral penetration or egress in host cell. Viral fusion proteins drive this fusion reaction by undergoing a major conformational change that is triggered by interactions with the target cell. The specific trigger depends on the virus and can be exposure to low pH in the endocytic pathway or interaction of the virion with the host receptor(s).

Host cell inner membrane

Protein found in or associated with the bacterial host cell inner membrane, the selectively permeable membrane which separates the host cytoplasm from the host periplasm in Gram-negative host bacterial cells. a selectively permeable membrane which separates the cytoplasm from the periplasm in Gram-negative bacterial cells.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (9)

Host cell membrane

Protein found in or associated with the host cell membrane, the selectively permeable membrane which separates the host cytoplasm from its surroundings.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (177,269)

Host cell outer membrane

Protein found in or associated with the bacterial host cell outer membrane, the selectively permeable membrane which separates the bacterial host periplasm from the Gram-negative host bacterial cell surroundings. In most bacteria, the cell membrane is enclosed by at least the cell wall.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (4)

Host membrane

Protein which is membrane-bound or membrane-associated with the host membrane, a lipid bilayer which surrounds host enclosed spaces and compartments. This selectively permeable structure is essential for effective separation of a host cell or organelle from its surroundings.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (217,757)

Host mitochondrion inner membrane

Protein found in or associated with the host mitochondrion inner membrane, the membrane which separates the host mitochondrial matrix from the host mitochondrial intermembrane space.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (11,296)

Host mitochondrion outer membrane

Protein found in or associated with the host mitochondrion outer membrane, the host mitochondrial membrane facing the host cytoplasm.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (11)

Membrane

Protein which is membrane-bound or membrane-associated. A membrane is the layer which forms the boundary of cells and intracellular organelles. It is composed of two oriented lipid layers in which proteins are embedded and acts as a selective permeability barrier.

Category: Cellular component · UniProtKB (2,539,956)

Membrane attack complex

Component of the membrane attack complex which groups the complement plasma glycoproteins C5b, C6, C7, C8 and polymeric C9 on biological membranes. The complex forms transmembrane channels which displace lipid molecules and other constituents, thus disrupting the phospholipid bilayer of target cells leading to cell lysis by osmotic leakage. The formation of the membrane attack complex is the terminal step in the complement cascade.

Postsynaptic cell membrane

Protein characteristic of the postsynaptic membrane. In a chemical synapse, the postsynaptic membrane is the membrane that receives a signal (binds neurotransmitter) from the presynaptic cell and responds via depolarisation or hyperpolarisation. The postsynaptic membrane is separated from the presynaptic membrane by the synaptic cleft.

Viral penetration via lysis of host organellar membrane

Viral membrane-lytic protein, usually associated with the viral capsid or released through partial programmed disassembly of the capsid, that induces major rupture of the bilayer integrity of host endosomal, lysosomal, or caveosomal membrane to allow viral escape and penetration into the cytoplasm. These viral lytic proteins may need to be activated, mostly through endosomal acidic pH or receptor binding to display membrane lytic activity. Viruses such as human adenoviruses group C and D lyse the host endosomal membrane to penetrate into the host cytoplasm.

Viral penetration via permeabilization of host organellar membrane

Viral membrane-penetration protein, usually associated with the viral capsid or released through partial programmed disassembly of the capsid, that locally permeabilizes the bilayer of a host organellar membrane to allow viral escape and penetration into the cytoplasm. Viral membrane-penetration proteins often need to be activated, mostly through endosomal acidic pH or receptor binding to display their membrane penetrating activity. Non-enveloped viruses such as parvovirus, human reovirus, BDV, BTV, rotavirus, papillomavirus, Flock house virus permeabilize the host endosomal membrane to penetrate the host cytoplasm.

Viral primary envelope fusion with host outer nuclear membrane

Viral protein implicated in fusion of the herpesviruses' primary envelope with the host outer nuclear membrane during egress. During egress, herpesviruses acquire a transitory, primary envelope as they bud at the inner nuclear membrane and gain access to the perinuclear space. This membrane is lost by fusing with the outer nuclear membrane during nuclear exit.
