Melanosomes: Biogenesis, Properties, and Evolution of an Ancient Organelle.

open access: yesPhysiological Reviews, 2019
Melanosomes are organelles that produce and store melanin, a widespread biological pigment with a unique suite of properties including high refractive index, semiconducting capabilities, material stiffness, and high fossilization potential.

Brefeldin A: insights into the control of membrane traffic and organelle structure

open access: yesJournal of Cell Biology, 1992
THE definition of cellular organelles has evolved over the last hundred years largely driven by morphologic observations, but more recently has been supplemented and complemented by functional and biochemical studies (Palade, 1975) . Thus, organelles are

Seipin and the membrane-shaping protein Pex30 cooperate in organelle budding from the endoplasmic reticulum

open access: yesNature Communications, 2018
Lipid droplets (LDs) and peroxisomes are ubiquitous organelles with central roles in eukaryotic cells. Although the mechanisms involved in biogenesis of these organelles remain elusive, both seem to require the endoplasmic reticulum (ER).

Mitochondria as signaling organelles [PDF]

open access: yesBMC Biology, 2014
Almost 20 years ago, the discovery that mitochondrial release of cytochrome c initiates a cascade that leads to cell death brought about a wholesale change in how cell biologists think of mitochondria. Formerly viewed as sites of biosynthesis and bioenergy production, these double membrane organelles could now be thought of as regulators of signal ...

Organelle interplay—peroxisome interactions in health and disease

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, 2019
Peroxisomes are multifunctional, dynamic, membrane‐bound organelles with important functions in cellular lipid metabolism, rendering them essential for human health and development.

Metabolic implications of organelle–mitochondria communication

open access: yesEMBO Reports, 2019
Cellular organelles are not static but show dynamism—a property that is likely relevant for their function. In addition, they interact with other organelles in a highly dynamic manner.

The Symbiosome: Legume and Rhizobia Co-evolution toward a Nitrogen-Fixing Organelle?

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2018
In legume nodules, symbiosomes containing endosymbiotic rhizobial bacteria act as temporary plant organelles that are responsible for nitrogen fixation, these bacteria develop mutual metabolic dependence with the host legume.
