P Systems are computing devices inspired by the structure and the func- tioning of a living cell. A P System consists of a hierarchy of membranes, each of them containing a multiset of objects, a set of evolution rules, and possibly other membranes. Evolution rules are applied to the objects of the same membrane with maximal parallelism.

Vanadate-inhibited endosome fusion. [PDF]
HEK293 cells stably expressing TLR4-CFP/MD-2 were untreated (A.), stimulated with Na3VO4 (500 µM) (B.), LPS-Cy5 (2 µg/ml) (C.), or prestimulated for 10 min with Na3VO4 and stimulated for 1 h with LPS (D.).

Summary: Mutations in Leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) cause Parkinson’s disease (PD). However, the precise function of LRRK2 remains unclear. We report an interaction between LRRK2 and VPS52, a subunit of the Golgi-associated retrograde protein ...

SUMMARY VAP (VAPA and VAPB) is an evolutionarily conserved endoplasmic reticulum (ER)-anchored protein that helps generate tethers between the ER and other membranes through which lipids are exchanged across adjacent bilayers.

The BAR Domain Superfamily Proteins from Subcellular Structures to Human Diseases
Eukaryotic cells have complicated membrane systems. The outermost plasma membrane contains various substructures, such as invaginations and protrusions, which are involved in endocytosis and cell migration.

Defects in ER–endosome contacts impact lysosome function in hereditary spastic paraplegia
Contacts between endosomes and the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) promote endosomal tubule fission, but the mechanisms involved and consequences of tubule fission failure are incompletely understood. We found that interaction between the microtubule-severing

Identification of Rab30 as a novel regulator of tubular endosomes
Tubular-shaped recycling endosomes, known as tubular endosomes, are present in certain types of cells, including HeLa cells, and they regulate the recycling of clathrin-independent endocytosed (CIE) cargo proteins to the plasma membrane.

Atg8ylation as a general membrane stress and remodeling response
The yeast Atg8 protein and its paralogs in mammals, mammalian Atg8s (mAtg8s), have been primarily appreciated for their participation in autophagy. However, lipidated mAtg8s, including the most frequently used autophagosomal membrane marker LC3B, are ...

The Toll for Trafficking: Toll-Like Receptor 7 Delivery to the Endosome
Toll-like receptor (TLR)-7 is an endosomal innate immune sensor capable of detecting single-stranded ribonucleic acid. TLR7-mediated induction of type I interferon and other inflammatory cytokine production is important in antiviral immune responses ...

Guiding Endosomal Maturation [PDF]
In the endocytic pathway, early endosomes are converted into late endosomes by exchange of their associated Rab GTPases. In this issue, Poteryaev et al. (2010) identify the SAND-1/Mon1 protein as a switch that shuts off the recruitment of one Rab (Rab5) and facilitates the activation of the next (Rab7).
