[HTML][HTML] Association of stomatin with lipid bodies
E Umlauf, E Csaszar, M Moertelmaier… - Journal of Biological …, 2004 - ASBMB
The oligomeric lipid raft-associated integral protein stomatin normally localizes to the
plasma membrane and the late endosomal compartment. Similar to the caveolins, it is
targeted to lipid bodies (LBs) on overexpression. Endogenous stomatin also associates with
LBs to a small extent. Green fluorescent protein-tagged stomatin (StomGFP) and the
dominant-negative caveolin-3 mutant DGV (cav3) HA occupy distinct domains on LB
surfaces but eventually intermix. Studies of StomGFP deletion mutants reveal that the region …
