Theory of Cargo and Membrane Trafficking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Endocytosis underlies many cellular functions including signaling and nutrient uptake. The endocytosed cargo gets redistributed across a dynamic network of endosomes undergoing fusion and fission. Here, a theoretical approach is reviewed which can explain how the microscopic properties of endosome interactions cause the emergent macroscopic properties ...

The yeast vacuolar membrane proteome [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Transport of solutes between the cytosol and the vacuolar lumen is of crucial importance for various functions of vacuoles, including ion homeostasis; detoxification; storage of different molecules such as amino acids, phosphate, and calcium ions; and ...

Structure and mechanism in membrane trafficking [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cell Biology, 2010
Cell biologists have long been interested in understanding the machinery that mediates movement of proteins and lipids between intracellular compartments. Much of this traffic is accomplished by vesicles (or other membranous carriers) that bud from one compartment and fuse with another.

Distinct human and mouse membrane trafficking systems for sweet taste receptors T1r2 and T1r3. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2014
The sweet taste receptors T1r2 and T1r3 are included in the T1r taste receptor family that belongs to class C of the G protein-coupled receptors. Heterodimerization of T1r2 and T1r3 is required for the perception of sweet substances, but little is known ...

The Exocyst Is Required for CD36 Fatty Acid Translocase Trafficking and Free Fatty Acid Uptake in Skeletal Muscle Cells

open access: yesCells, 2022
In obesity, chronic membrane-localization of CD36 free fatty acid (FFA) translocase, but not other FFA transporters, enhances FFA uptake and intracellular lipid accumulation.

In Vivo Tissue-wide Synchronization of Mitochondrial Metabolic Oscillations

open access: yesCell Reports, 2014
Little is known about the spatiotemporal coordination of mitochondrial metabolism in multicellular organisms in situ. Using intravital microscopy in live animals, we report that mitochondrial metabolism undergoes rapid and periodic oscillations under ...

Ubiquitination-Dependent Regulation of Small GTPases in Membrane Trafficking: From Cell Biology to Human Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021
Membrane trafficking is critical for cellular homeostasis, which is mainly carried out by small GTPases, a class of proteins functioning in vesicle budding, transport, tethering and fusion processes. The accurate and organized membrane trafficking relies

Diacylglycerol kinases in membrane trafficking [PDF]

open access: yesCellular Logistics, 2015
Diacylglycerol kinases (DGKs) belong to a family of cytosolic kinases that regulate the phosphorylation of diacylglycerol (DAG), converting it into phosphatidic acid (PA). There are 10 known mammalian DGK isoforms, each with a different tissue distribution and substrate specificity.

Cholesterol transport from late endosomes to the Golgi regulates t-SNARE trafficking, assembly, and function [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Cholesterol regulates plasma membrane (PM) association and functioning of syntaxin-4 and soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein 23 (SNAP23) in the secretory pathway.

Revisiting Rab7 Functions in Mammalian Autophagy: Rab7 Knockout Studies

open access: yesCells, 2018
Rab7 (or Ypt7 in yeast) is one of the well-characterized members of the Rab family small GTPases, which serve as master regulators of membrane trafficking in eukaryotes.
