Outer membrane vesicles as platform vaccine technology [PDF]
Biotechnology Journal, 2015 AbstractOuter membrane vesicles (OMVs) are released spontaneously during growth by many Gram‐negative bacteria. They present a range of surface antigens in a native conformation and have natural properties like immunogenicity, self‐adjuvation and uptake by immune cells which make them attractive for application as vaccines against pathogenic bacteria ...

Photoreceptor Outer Segment-like Structures in Long-Term 3D Retinas from Human Pluripotent Stem Cells. [PDF]
, 2017 The retinal degenerative diseases, which together constitute a leading cause of hereditary blindness worldwide, are largely untreatable. Development of reliable methods to culture complex retinal tissues from human pluripotent stem cells (hPSCs) could ...

Heat shock enhances outer-membrane vesicle release in Bordetella spp.
Current Research in Microbial Sciences, 2021 Pertussis, also known as whooping cough, is caused by the Gram-negative bacterium Bordetella pertussis, an obligate human pathogen. Despite high vaccination rates in high-income countries, resurgence of pertussis cases is an occurring problem that urges ...

Synaptic proteins promote calcium-triggered fast transition from point contact to full fusion. [PDF]
, 2012 The molecular underpinnings of synaptic vesicle fusion for fast neurotransmitter release are still unclear. Here, we used a single vesicle-vesicle system with reconstituted SNARE and synaptotagmin-1 proteoliposomes to decipher the temporal sequence of ...

Genome-Wide Assessment of Outer Membrane Vesicle Production in Escherichia coli. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 The production of outer membrane vesicles by Gram-negative bacteria has been well documented; however, the mechanism behind the biogenesis of these vesicles remains unclear.

Outer envelope membranes from chloroplasts are isolated as right-side-out vesicles [PDF]
, 1992 Outer envelope membranes were isolated from purified chloroplasts of pea leaves. The sidedness of the vesicles was analyzed by (i) aqueous polymer-two phase partitioning, (ii) the effect of limited proteolysis on the outer-envelope proteins (OEP) 86 and ...

Production of Outer Membrane Vesicles and Outer Membrane Tubes by Francisella novicida [PDF]
Journal of Bacteriology, 2012 Francisella spp. are highly infectious and virulent bacteria that cause the zoonotic disease tularemia. Knowledge is lacking for the virulence factors expressed by Francisella and how these factors are secreted and delivered to host cells. Gram-negative bacteria constitutively release outer membrane vesicles (OMV), which may function in the delivery of

Vesicular Nucleo-Cytoplasmic Transport—Herpesviruses as Pioneers in Cell Biology
Viruses, 2016 Herpesviruses use a vesicle-mediated transfer of intranuclearly assembled nucleocapsids through the nuclear envelope (NE) for final maturation in the cytoplasm.
