Membrane Trafficking in Nerve Terminals
1995Publisher Summary Most exocytotic release of neurotransmitters occurs in the nerve terminal, which can be envisaged as a dedicated secretory compartment. Thus, the nerve terminal is the most interesting compartment from the point of view of membrane trafficking, also because it is indirectly involved in a large part of the membrane trafficking events

Flagellar membrane trafficking in kinetoplastids
Parasitology Research, 2006Trypanosomes are flagellated protozoa belonging to the order Kinetoplastidae. Three trypanosomes, Trypanosoma brucei, Trypanosoma cruzi, and Leishmania are the causative agents of the human diseases: African sleeping sickness, Chagas disease, and leishmaniasis, respectively.

Trafficking of Viral Membrane Proteins
2005Many viruses express membrane proteins. For enveloped viruses in particular, membrane proteins are frequently structural components of the virus that mediate the essential tasks of receptor recognition and membrane fusion. The functional activities of these proteins require that they are sorted correctly in infected cells.

Glycosylation disorders of membrane trafficking
Glycoconjugate Journal, 2012During evolution from prokaryotic to eukaryotic cells, compartmentalization of cellular functions has been achieved with a high degree of complexity. Notably, all secreted and transmembrane proteins travel through endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi apparatus, where they are synthesized, folded and subjected to covalent modifications, most ...

Ral: Mediator of membrane trafficking
The International Journal of Biochemistry & Cell Biology, 2006Ral is a multifunctional small GTPase involved in tumorigenesis and in controlling intracellular membrane trafficking. It is mainly activated by factors downstream of Ras, or independently of these factors and operates by protein-protein interactions with an expanding repertoire of partners. RalA is a positive regulator of calcium-evoked exocytosis via

Membrane trafficking and processing in Paramecium
2000Cellular membranes are made in a cell's biosynthetic pathway and are composed of similar biochemical constituents. Nevertheless, they become differentiated as membrane components are sorted into different membrane-limited compartments. We summarize the morphological and immunological similarities and differences seen in the membranes of the various ...

Migraine meets membrane trafficking
Cephalalgia, 2014Having a drug that works clinically, but without a clear mechanism, is like having a key that can be tried on many doors—eventually one will open, but what will be found? The paper by Burstein and colleagues (1) in this issue of Cephalalgia describes an unexpected connection between migraine and membrane trafficking associated with mechanical pain.

Dynamics of Secretory Membrane Trafficking
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2004Abstract: The study of intracellular membrane trafficking and organelle dynamics has been revolutionized with the advent of GFP technology, which allows individual proteins to be tagged with GFP and monitored in living cells. Using GFP‐based techniques such as selective photobleaching and time‐lapse imaging of different GFP color variants, it is now ...

Lipoproteins and Their Trafficking to the Outer Membrane
EcoSal Plus, 2019Lipoproteins are produced by both Gram-positive and Gram-negative bacteria. Once secreted, lipoproteins are quickly acylated, anchoring them into the plasma membrane. Recent work has shown that Gram-positive bacteria are able to generate considerable diversity in the acylation of their lipoproteins, though the mechanisms involved are only ...
