Intracellular glutathione pools are heterogeneously concentrated [PDF]
Glutathione is present in millimolar concentrations in the cell, but its relative distribution among cellular compartments remains elusive. We have chosen the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) as an example organelle to study compartment-specific glutathione ...

The isolation and characterisation of temperature-dependent Ricin A chain molecules in Saccharomyces cerevisiae. [PDF]
Ricin is a heterodimeric plant protein that is potently toxic to mammalian cells. Toxicity results from the catalytic depurination of eukaryotic ribosomes by ricin A chain (RTA) that follows toxin endocytosis to, and translocation across, the ...

Targeting the calcium ATPase to the endoplasmic reticulum
The sarco/endoplasmic reticulum calcium ATPase (SERCA) pumps calcium from thecytoplasm into the lumen of the endoplasmic or sarcoplasmic reticulum (ER/SR), removingexcess Ca2+ from the cytoplasm and replenishing ER/SR Ca2+ stores. SERCA is located inboth

Glycosylation can influence topogenesis of membrane proteins and reveals dynamic reorientation of nascent polypeptides within the translocon [PDF]
The topology of multispanning membrane proteins in the mammalian endoplasmic reticulum is thought to be dictated primarily by the first hydrophobic sequence.

Protein trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus is central to cellular homeostasis. ER export signals are utilized by a subset of proteins to rapidly exit the ER by direct uptake into COPII vesicles for transport to the ...

Syntaxin 16 and syntaxin 5 are required for efficient retrograde transport of several exogenous and endogenous cargo proteins [PDF]
Retrograde transport allows proteins and lipids to leave the endocytic pathway to reach other intracellular compartments, such as trans-Golgi network (TGN)/Golgi membranes, the endoplasmic reticulum and, in some instances, the cytosol. Here, we have used

Location matters: the endoplasmic reticulum and protein trafficking in dendrites
Neurons are highly polarized, but the trafficking mechanisms that operate in these cells and the topological organization of their secretory organelles are still poorly understood.

Dissection of the asynchronous transport of intestinal microvillar hydrolases to the cell surface [PDF]
Novel subcellular fractionation procedures and pulse-chase techniques were used to study the intracellular transport of the microvillar membrane hydrolases sucrase-isomaltase and dipeptidylpeptidase IV in the differentiated colon adenocarcinoma cell line
