Effects of bursty synthesis in organelle biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesMathematical Biosciences
A fundamental question of cell biology is how cells control the number of organelles. The processes of organelle biogenesis, namely de novo synthesis, fission, fusion, and decay, are inherently stochastic, producing cell-to-cell variability in organelle abundance. In addition, experiments suggest that the synthesis of some organelles can be bursty.

Inheritance and biogenesis of organelles in the secretory pathway

open access: yesNature Reviews Molecular Cell Biology, 2007
In eukaryotic cells, cellular functions are compartmentalized into membrane-bound organelles. This has many advantages, as shown by the success of the eukaryotic lineage, but creates many problems for cells, such as the need to build and partition these organelles during cell growth and division.

Organelle biogenesis and interorganellar connections: Better in contact than in isolation. [PDF]

open access: yesCommun Integr Biol, 2014
Membrane contact sites (MCSs) allow the exchange of molecules and information between organelles, even when their membranes cannot fuse directly. In recent years, a number of functions have been attributed to these contacts, highlighting their critical role in cell homeostasis.

Autophagy protein Atg7 is essential for maintaining malaria parasite cellular homeostasis and organelle biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesmBio
Plasmodium parasites have a complex life cycle that transitions between mosquito and mammalian hosts, and undergo continuous cellular remodeling to adapt to various drastic environments.

A coordinated transcriptional program controls de novo Golgi biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesThe EMBO Journal
The Golgi apparatus expands during differentiation and increased secretory demand, yet the transcriptional mechanisms governing its biogenesis remain poorly defined.

Biogenesis of the trypanosome endo-exocytotic organelle is cytoskeleton mediated.

open access: yesPLoS Biology, 2008
Trypanosoma brucei is a protozoan parasite that is used as a model organism to study such biological phenomena as gene expression, protein trafficking, and cytoskeletal biogenesis. In T.

Regulation of Organelle Biogenesis [PDF]

open access: yesCell, 1996
We are grateful to the members of the Walter laboratory and of the many other laboratories whose work is reviewed for their helpful discussions, for their critical reading of this manuscript, and for making preprints available prior to publication. Because of space limitations, we were not able to include many of the primary references, and the readers

Organelle biogenesis: en BLOC exchange for RAB32 and RAB38. [PDF]

open access: yesCurr Biol, 2012
SummaryProminent subtypes of the genetic disorder Hermansky–Pudlak syndrome result from defects in a mysterious protein complex, BLOC-3. New work identifies BLOC-3 as a guanine nucleotide exchange factor for two RAB GTPases previously implicated in ...

The Biogenesis of Lysosomes and Lysosome-Related Organelles [PDF]

open access: yesCold Spring Harbor Perspectives in Biology, 2014
Lysosomes were once considered the end point of endocytosis, simply used for macromolecule degradation. They are now recognized to be dynamic organelles, able to fuse with a variety of targets and to be re-formed after fusion events. They are also now known to be the site of nutrient sensing and signaling to the cell nucleus. In addition, lysosomes are
