The transporter-like protein inebriated mediates hyperosmotic stimuli through intracellular signaling [PDF]
We cloned the inebriated homologue MasIne from Manduca sexta and expressed it in Xenopus laevis oocytes. MasIne is homologous to neurotransmitter transporters but no transport was observed with a number of putative substrates.

The Huntington's disease mutation impairs Huntingtin's role in the transport of NF-κB from the synapse to the nucleus [PDF]
Expansion of a polyglutamine (polyQ) tract in the Huntingtin (Htt) protein causes Huntington's disease (HD), a fatal inherited neurodegenerative disorder.

Spatiotemporal visualization of subcellular dynamics of carbon nanotubes [PDF]
To date, there is no consensus on the relationship between the physicochemical characteristics of carbon nanotubes (CNTs) and their biological behavior; however, there is growing evidence that the versatile characteristics make their biological fate ...

Transcriptional regulation of the ABCC6 gene and the background of impaired function of missense disease-causing mutations. [PDF]
The human ATP-binding cassette family C member 6 (ABCC6) gene encodes an ABC transporter protein expressed primarily in the liver and to a lesser extent in the kidneys and the intestines.

Acid transport by intracellular vesicles [PDF]
Abstract. Many intracellular organelles contain a unique primary, electrogenic proton pump termed the vacuolar H+‐ATPase. This pump, found in many endocytic, secretory, and storage vesicles in fungal, plant and animal cells, functions, in conjunction with a chloride conductance, to acidify the vesicle interior.

Subcellular localization of microsomal triglyceride transfer protein
Microsomal triglyceride transfer protein (MTP) is essential for the assembly of apolipoprotein B-containing lipoproteins. Within the endoplasmic reticulum, it transfers lipid from the membrane to the forming lipoprotein.

Hook3 is a scaffold for the opposite-polarity microtubule-based motors cytoplasmic dynein-1 and KIF1C. [PDF]
The unidirectional and opposite-polarity microtubule-based motors, dynein and kinesin, drive long-distance intracellular cargo transport. Cellular observations suggest that opposite-polarity motors may be coupled.

The 50-nm Free Vesicles Visible in Saccharomyces cerevisiae Are Not COPII-Dependent
According to the current dogma, ER–Golgi transport is mediated by COPII-coated vesicles. However, numerous contradictions have emerged in this field. In this study, we demonstrate that Saccharomyces cerevisiae contains three distinct types of membrane ...
