Functional selectivity of GPCR-directed drug action through location bias. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are increasingly recognized to operate from intracellular membranes as well as the plasma membrane. The β 2 -adrenergic GPCR can activate G s -linked cyclic AMP (G s -cAMP) signaling from endosomes.

An ancestral secretory apparatus in the protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis [PDF]

open access: yes, 2003
The protozoan parasite Giardia intestinalis belongs to one of the earliest diverged eukaryotic lineages. This is also reflected in a simple intracellular organization, as Giardia lacks common subcellular compartments such as mitochondria, peroxisomes ...

Re-defining the Golgi complex in Plasmodium falciparum using the novel Golgi marker PfGRASP [PDF]

open access: yes, 2005
Plasmodium falciparum, the causative agent of malaria, relies on a sophisticated protein secretion system for host cell invasion and transformation.

Diverse roles for the p24 family of proteins in eukaryotic cells

open access: yesBiomolecular Concepts, 2012
Members of the p24 protein family form a highly conserved family of type I transmembrane proteins that are abundant components of the early secretory pathway.

Exploring the eukaryotic Yip and REEP/Yop superfamily of membrane-shaping adapter proteins (MSAPs): A cacophony or harmony of structure and function?

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Biosciences, 2022
Polytopic cargo proteins are synthesized and exported along the secretory pathway from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), through the Golgi apparatus, with eventual insertion into the plasma membrane (PM).

Caldendrin and Calneurons—EF-Hand CaM-Like Calcium Sensors With Unique Features and Specialized Neuronal Functions

open access: yesFrontiers in Molecular Neuroscience, 2019
The calmodulin (CaM)-like Ca2+-sensor proteins caldendrin, calneuron-1 and -2 are members of the neuronal calcium-binding protein (nCaBP)-family, a family that evolved relatively late during vertebrate evolution.

Chlamydia Hijacks ARF GTPases To Coordinate Microtubule Posttranslational Modifications and Golgi Complex Positioning. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The intracellular bacterium Chlamydia trachomatis develops in a parasitic compartment called the inclusion. Posttranslationally modified microtubules encase the inclusion, controlling the positioning of Golgi complex fragments around the inclusion.

Golgi Apparatus: A Potential Therapeutic Target for Autophagy-Associated Neurological Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2020
Autophagy has dual effects in human diseases: appropriate autophagy may protect cells from stress, while excessive autophagy may cause cell death. Additionally, close interactions exist between autophagy and the Golgi.

Tomato spotted wilt virus glycoproteins induce the formation of endoplasmic reticulum- and Golgi-derived pleomorphic membrane structures in plant cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Tomato spotted wilt virus (TSWV) particles are spherical and enveloped, an uncommon feature among plant infecting viruses. Previous studies have shown that virus particle formation involves the enwrapment of ribonucleoproteins with viral glycoprotein ...

Sorting of a multi-subunit ubiquitin ligase complex in the endolysosome system

open access: yeseLife, 2018
The yeast Dsc E3 ligase complex has long been recognized as a Golgi-specific protein ubquitination system. It shares a striking sequence similarity to the Hrd1 complex that plays critical roles in the ER-associated degradation pathway.
