Sorting protein VPS33B regulates exosomal autocrine signaling to mediate hematopoiesis and leukemogenesis [PDF]
Certain secretory proteins are known to be critical for maintaining the stemness of stem cells through autocrine signaling. However, the processes underlying the biogenesis, maturation, and secretion of these proteins remain largely unknown. Here we demonstrate that many secretory proteins produced by hematopoietic stem cells (HSCs) undergo exosomal ...

TRAM is involved in IL-18 signaling and functions as a sorting adaptor for MyD88. [PDF]
MyD88, a Toll/interleukin-1 receptor homology (TIR) domain-containing adaptor protein, mediates signals from the Toll-like receptors (TLR) or IL-1/IL-18 receptors to downstream kinases. In MyD88-dependent TLR4 signaling, the function of MyD88 is enhanced

Production of the main celiac disease autoantigen by transient expression in Nicotiana benthamiana [PDF]
Celiac Disease (CD) is a gluten sensitive enteropathy that remains widely undiagnosed and implementation of massive screening tests is needed to reduce the long term complications associated to untreated CD.

Multiple Sorting Signals Determine Apical Localization of a Nonglycosylated Integral Membrane Protein [PDF]
In polarized cells, newly synthesized proteins are sorted in the trans-Golgi network and from there delivered to either the apical or basolateral membranes. Madin-Darby canine kidney (MDCK) cells have been widely used as a model system to study sorting determinants to the apical and basolateral surfaces.

Distinct pathways mediate the sorting of tail-anchored proteins to the plastid outer envelope. [PDF]
Tail-anchored (TA) proteins are a distinct class of membrane proteins that are sorted post-translationally to various organelles and function in a number of important cellular processes, including redox reactions, vesicular trafficking and protein ...

An N‐terminal hydrophobic peak is the sorting signal of regulated secretory proteins [PDF]
Endocrine and exocrine cells each contain a regulated and constitutive secretory pathway. The presence of two distinct secretory pathways in the same cell type requires a sorting step to direct secretory proteins to the correct pathway. It is thought that regulated secretory proteins contain a specific sorting signal.

Membrane-associated proteins in giardia lamblia [PDF]
The manner in which membrane-associated proteins interact with the membrane defines their subcellular fate and function. This interaction relies on the characteristics of the proteins, their journey after synthesis, and their interaction with other ...

Construction of a weight-based seed sorting system for the third-generation hybrid rice
Background The third-generation hybrid rice technology can be constructed by transforming a recessive nuclear male sterile (NMS) mutant with a transgenic cassette containing three functional modules: the wild type male fertility gene to restore the ...
