Functional and Morphological Plasticity of the Endolysosomal System: Pigment Organelles at the Crossroads of Physiology and Pathology

open access: yesBiology of the Cell, Volume 117, Issue 10, October 2025.
The morphodynamical plasticity of the endolysosomal system supports the formation and function of specialized intracellular compartments, as exemplified by the pigment organelles in skin cells. In epidermal melanocytes and keratinocytes, membrane trafficking and remodeling coordinate tissue pigmentation and protect the genome from photodamage ...

Adaptor protein complexes and intracellular transport

open access: yesBioscience Reports, 2014
The AP (adaptor protein) complexes are heterotetrameric protein complexes that mediate intracellular membrane trafficking along endocytic and secretory transport pathways. There are five different AP complexes: AP-1, AP-2 and AP-3 are clathrin-associated

Genetic Diagnosis of Oculocutaneous Albinism Type 1A: A Novel TYR Variant

open access: yesClinical Case Reports, Volume 13, Issue 9, September 2025.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism type IA (OCA1A) is a rare autosomal recessive disorder caused by variants in the TYR gene, resulting in complete loss of tyrosinase activity and absence of melanin production. In this study, we report a novel missense variant, TYR (NM_000372.5):c.143A>C (p.Gln48Pro), found within exon 1 and mapped to chr11: g.89178096A ...

Electron micrograph of platelets and chest computed tomography scans in patients with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome.

open access: yes, 2018
Representative whole-mount electron micrographs of platelets from a patient with Hermansky-Pudlak syndrome (A) and normal platelets (B) are shown (bar = 1 micrometer). Normal platelets contain delta granules (arrows), and platelets from patients with HPS
