Hydrophobic profiles of the tail anchors in SLMAP dictate subcellular targeting

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Tail anchored (TA) membrane proteins target subcellular structures via a C-terminal transmembrane domain and serve prominent roles in membrane fusion and vesicle transport. Sarcolemmal Membrane Associated Protein (SLMAP) possesses tw...
