Although budding yeast has been extensively used as a model organism for studying organelle functions and intracellular vesicle trafficking, whether it possesses an independent endocytic early/sorting compartment that sorts endocytic cargos to the endo ...

Real-time visualization of clustering and intracellular transport of gold nanoparticles by correlative imaging. [PDF]
Mechanistic understanding of the endocytosis and intracellular trafficking of nanoparticles is essential for designing smart theranostic carriers. Physico-chemical properties, including size, clustering and surface chemistry of nanoparticles regulate ...

Early endosomes and endosomal coatomer are required for autophagy [PDF]
Autophagy, an intracellular degradative pathway, maintains cell homeostasis under normal and stress conditions. Nascent double-membrane autophagosomes sequester and enclose cytosolic components and organelles, and subsequently fuse with the endosomal pathway allowing content degradation.

Gene transfer into hepatocytes using asialoglycoprotein receptor mediated endocytosis of DNA complexed with an artificial tetra-antennary galactose ligand [PDF]
We have constructed an artificial ligand for the hepatocyte-specific asialoglycoprotein receptor for the purpose of generating a synthetic delivery system for DNA.

Canine respiratory coronavirus employs caveolin-1-mediated pathway for internalization to HRT-18G cells [PDF]
Canine respiratory coronavirus (CRCoV), identified in 2003, is a member of the Coronaviridae family. The virus is a betacoronavirus and a close relative of human coronavirus OC43 and bovine coronavirus.

Many Keys Unlock the Doors for Virus Entry
To successfully infect, viruses must respond to cues that promote their genome delivery into host cells. These keys to virus entry frequently reside inside endocytic vesicles. In a recent mBio article, Poston et al. (D. Poston, Y. Weisblum, A. Hobbs, and

Delivery of ligands from sorting endosomes to late endosomes occurs by maturation of sorting endosomes [PDF]
After endocytosis, lysosomally targeted ligands pass through a series of endosomal compartments. The endocytic apparatus that accomplishes this passage may be considered to take one of two forms: (a) a system in which lysosomally targeted ligands pass through preexisting, long-lived early sorting endosomes and are then selectively transported to long ...

A conserved and regulated mechanism drives endosomal Rab transition
Endosomes and lysosomes harbor Rab5 and Rab7 on their surface as key proteins involved in their identity, biogenesis, and fusion. Rab activation requires a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF), which is Mon1-Ccz1 for Rab7. During endosome maturation,

Quantification of Protein Uptake by Endocytosis in Carnivorous Nepenthales
Carnivorous plants adsorb prey-derived nutrients partly by endocytosis. This study quantifies endocytosis in Drosophyllum lusitanicum, Drosera capensis, Drosera roseana, Dionaea muscipula and Nepenthes × ventrata.
