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 ...

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

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 ...

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.

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.

Rabaptin5 is recruited to endosomes by Rab4a and Rabex5 to regulate endosome maturation [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Membrane trafficking between organelles is fundamental to the existence of eukaryotic cells. A multitude of proteins is involved in membrane trafficking, acting as building blocks for transport carriers, regulators of transport, and targeting and fusion ...

Novel role for proteinase-activated receptor 2 (PAR2) in membrane trafficking of proteinase-activated receptor 4 (PAR4)

open access: yes, 2012
Proteinase-activated receptors 4 (PAR(4)) is a class A G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) recognized through the ability of serine proteases such as thrombin and trypsin to mediate receptor activation. Due to the irreversible nature of activation, a fresh

The role of dimerisation in the cellular trafficking of G-protein-coupled receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
The concept that G-protein-coupled receptors can exist as homomeric and/or heteromeric complexes is now well established. Despite this, how dynamic such interactions are and if this may be modulated during receptor trafficking remain topics of debate ...
