Class III PI3K regulates organismal glucose homeostasis by providing negative feedback on hepatic insulin signalling. [PDF]
Defective hepatic insulin receptor (IR) signalling is a pathogenic manifestation of metabolic disorders including obesity and diabetes. The endo/lysosomal trafficking system may coordinate insulin action and nutrient homeostasis by endocytosis of IR and ...

Rab5 Affinity Chromatography without Nonhydrolyzable GTP Analogues
Rab5 is an important small GTPase involved in endocytosis and membrane trafficking. Rab5-binding proteins can be identified using Rab5 affinity chromatography with nonhydrolyzable GTP analogues such as GTPγS or GppNHp. However, this method requires significant quantities of the GTP analogue and is thus time-consuming and expensive.

Sbf/MTMR13 coordinates PI(3)P and Rab21 regulation in endocytic control of cellular remodeling. [PDF]
Cells rely on the coordinated regulation of lipid phosphoinositides and Rab GTPases to define membrane compartment fates along distinct trafficking routes.

Stochastic Model of Virus–Endosome Fusion and Endosomal Escape of pH-Responsive Nanoparticles
In this paper, we set up a stochastic model for the dynamics of active Rab5 and Rab7 proteins on the surface of endosomes and the acidification process that govern the virus–endosome fusion and endosomal escape of pH-responsive nanoparticles. We employ a

Vomocytosis: Too Much Booze, Base, or Calcium? [PDF]
Macrophages are well known for their phagocytic activity and their role in innate immune responses. Macrophages eat non-self particles, via a variety of mechanisms, and typically break down internalized cargo into small macromolecules.

A novel function of Rab5 in mitosis [PDF]
Several membrane trafficking proteins have been shown to participate in spindle assembly and stability during mitosis. Despite the fact that the role of some of them has been clarified, the requirement for these molecules in mitosis is still poorly understood.

Ectodomain shedding of the amyloid precursor protein: Cellular control mechanisms and novel modifiers [PDF]
Proteolytic cleavage in the ectodomain of the amyloid precursor protein (APP) is a key regulatory step in the generation of the Alzheimer's disease amyloid-beta (A beta) pepticle and occurs through two different protease activities termed alpha- and beta-

Rab5 and Rac Team Up in Cell Motility [PDF]
Cell motility requires actin assembly mediated by Rac, a Rho family GTPase. In this issue, Palamidessi et al. (2008) show that Rab5-directed trafficking of Rac to the cell membrane is required for Rac-mediated actin assembly. Trafficking of Rac may influence the mode of cell migration during morphogenesis and cancer metastasis.
