Explosive cell lysis as a mechanism for the biogenesis of bacterial membrane vesicles and biofilms
Nature Communications, 2016 Many bacteria release DNA and membrane vesicles through unclear mechanisms. Here, the authors show that a prophage endolysin is involved in the explosive lysis of a sub-population of cells in Pseudomonas aeruginosa, releasing cytoplasmic content and ...

Nature Communications, 2021 An effective tumor vaccine vector that can rapidly display neoantigens is urgently needed. Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) can strongly activate the innate immune system and are qualified as immunoadjuvants. Here, we describe a versatile OMV-based vaccine

Bacterial Outer Membrane Vesicles: From Discovery to Applications.
Annual Review of Microbiology, 2021 Secretion of cellular components across the plasma membrane is an essential process that enables organisms to interact with their environments. Production of extracellular vesicles in bacteria is a well-documented but poorly understood process.

Outer Membrane Vesicles: Biogenesis, Functions, and Issues
Microbiology and Molecular Biology Reviews, 2022 This review focuses on nonlytic outer membrane vesicles (OMVs), a subtype of bacterial extracellular vesicles (BEVs) produced by Gram-negative organisms focusing on the mechanisms of their biogenesis, cargo, and function.

Outer Membrane Vesicles of Gram-Negative Bacteria: An Outlook on Biogenesis
Frontiers in Microbiology, 2021 Outer membrane vesicles (OMVs) from Gram-negative bacteria were first described more than 50 years ago. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in biogenesis began to be studied only in the last few decades.

Alignment of synaptic vesicle macromolecules with the macromolecules in active zone material that direct vesicle docking. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Synaptic vesicles dock at active zones on the presynaptic plasma membrane of a neuron's axon terminals as a precondition for fusing with the membrane and releasing their neurotransmitter to mediate synaptic impulse transmission.
