Approximately one third of a cell's proteins are destined to function outside the cell's boundaries or while embedded within cellular membranes. Ensuring these proteins reach their diverse final destinations with temporal and spatial accuracy is essential for cellular physiology.

Defender or accomplice? Dual roles of plant vesicle trafficking in restricting and enabling geminiviral systemic infection. [PDF]
Summary The vesicle trafficking system enables multidirectional cargo fluxes between endomembrane compartments. However, vesicle trafficking plays dual roles during pathogen infections. In plants, it mediates autophagic immune responses but can also be hijacked by pathogens to facilitate successful infections.

Trafficking of the human Na<sup>+</sup>/H<sup>+</sup> antiporter NHA2 to the plasma membrane requires cornichon COPII cargo receptors. [PDF]
Abstract A key prerequisite of transporter proteins' function is their trafficking to the target cellular membranes where they fulfill distinct physiological roles. Cornichon proteins (CNIH/Erv14) represent a highly conserved family of coat protein complex II (COPII)‐coated vesicle cargo receptors that facilitate the exit of numerous transporters from ...

Proteomic and Lipidomic Profiling of Immune Cell-Derived Subpopulations of Extracellular Vesicles. [PDF]
ABSTRACT Extracellular vesicles (EVs) are heterogeneous and play important roles in intercellular communication, contributing to physiological and pathological processes. Since few markers currently exist to differentiate subtypes of EVs, this study aimed to determine proteomic and lipidomic differences among four EV subpopulations. Large and small EVs

Cex1 is a component of the COPI intracellular trafficking machinery
COPI (coatomer complex I) coated vesicles are involved in Golgi-to-ER and intra-Golgi trafficking pathways, and mediate retrieval of ER resident proteins. Functions and components of the COPI-mediated trafficking pathways, beyond the canonical set of Sec/

En bloc incorporation of coatomer subunits during the assembly of COP-coated vesicles. [PDF]
The cDNA encoding epsilon-COP, the 36-kD subunit of coatomer, was cloned from a bovine liver cDNA library and sequenced. Immunoblotting with an anti-epsilon-COP antibody showed that epsilon-COP exists in COP-coated vesicles as well as in the cytosolic coatomer.

The spinal muscular atrophy disease protein SMN is linked to the Golgi network. [PDF]
Proximal spinal muscular atrophy (SMA) is a neurodegenerative disorder caused by deficiency of the ubiquitous Survival of Motor Neuron (SMN) protein. SMN has been shown to be transported in granules along the axon and moved through cytoskeletal elements.

The complexity of vesicle transport factors in plants examined by orthology search. [PDF]
Vesicle transport is a central process to ensure protein and lipid distribution in eukaryotic cells. The current knowledge on the molecular components and mechanisms of this process is majorly based on studies in Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Arabidopsis ...
