The Phenylpropanoid Case – It Is Transport That Matters
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Phenylpropanoids fulfill numerous physiological functions, essential for plant growth and development, as well as plant–environment interactions. Over the last few decades, many studies have shown that exquisite regulatory mechanisms at multiple levels ...

Functional compartmentalization and metabolic separation in a prokaryotic cell [PDF]
Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2021 Significance In a typical prokaryotic cell, hundreds of metabolites are present and interconverted simultaneously, some serving as allosteric regulators for unrelated reactions or accidental substrates for promiscuous enzymes or being downright reactive and toxic. Although certain spatial separation of prokaryotic

Ultrastructural Alterations in Cells of Sunflower Linear Glandular Trichomes during Maturation
Plants, 2021 Sunflower and related taxa are known to possess a characteristic type of multicellular uniseriate trichome which produces sesquiterpenes and flavonoids of yet unknown function for this plant. Contrary to the metabolic profile, the cytological development

Role of EPAC1 Signalosomes in Cell Fate: Friends or Foes?
Cells, 2020 The compartmentation of signaling processes is accomplished by the assembly of protein complexes called signalosomes. These signaling platforms colocalize enzymes, substrates, and anchoring proteins into specific subcellular compartments.

Regulatory T-cell compartmentalization and trafficking
Blood, 2006 CD4+CD25+FOXP3+ regulatory T cells (CD4+ Treg cells) are thought to differentiate in the thymus and immigrate from the thymus to the periphery. Treg cells can regulate both acquired and innate immunity through multiple modes of suppression. The cross-talk between Treg cells and targeted cells, such as antigen-presenting cells (APCs) and T cells, is ...

Plant cell wall lignification and monolignol metabolism
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2013 Plants are built of various specialized cell types that differ in their cell wall composition and structure. The cell walls of certain tissues (xylem, sclerenchyma) are characterized by the presence of the heterogenous polymer lignin that plays an ...

Combinatorial guidance by CCR7 ligands for T lymphocytes migration in co-existing chemokine fields. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Chemokines mediate the trafficking and positioning of lymphocytes in lymphoid tissues that is crucial for immune surveillance and immune responses. In particular, a CCR7 ligand, CCL21, plays important roles in recruiting T cells to secondary lymphoid ...
