Vps35-deficiency impairs SLC4A11 trafficking and promotes corneal dystrophy. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2017
Vps35 (vacuolar protein sorting 35) is a major component of retromer that selectively promotes endosome-to-Golgi retrieval of transmembrane proteins. Dysfunction of retromer is a risk factor for the pathogenesis of Parkinson's disease (PD) and Alzheimer ...

RAB32‐Linked Parkinson's Disease: Deep Phenotyping, MDSGene Literature Review, and Application of SynNeurGe Criteria

open access: yesMovement Disorders, Volume 40, Issue 12, Page 2746-2769, December 2025.
Abstract Background The RAB32 p.Ser71Arg variant is a novel cause of monogenic Parkinson's disease (PD), for which detailed phenotypic information is currently scarce. Objectives Our aim was to clinically and biologically characterize individuals with PARK‐RAB32 to gain insights into genotype–phenotype relationships, disease severity, and underlying ...

VPS35 or retromer as a potential target for neurodegenerative disorders: barriers to progress. [PDF]

open access: yesExpert Opin Ther Targets
Introduction Vacuolar Protein Sorting 35 (VPS35) is pivotal in the retromer complex, governing transmembrane protein trafficking within cells, and its dysfunction is implicated in neurodegenerative diseases.

Traffic into silence: endomembranes and post-transcriptional RNA silencing. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
microRNAs (miRNAs) and small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) are small RNAs that repress gene expression at the post-transcriptional level in plants and animals. Small RNAs guide Argonaute-containing RNA-induced silencing complexes to target RNAs in a sequence-

From Yeast to Therapeutics: Modeling Neurodegenerative Diseases in Saccharomyces cerevisiae

open access: yesYeast, Volume 42, Issue 12, Page 283-302, December 2025.
Yeast plasmids expressing human Aβ‐42, α‐syn, htt, and TDP‐43. Their fate includes an equilibrium between the endocytic pathway and aggregates that potentially disrupt endocytosis, vesicular transport, vacuolar autophagy, and mitochondrial activity. ABSTRACT Here, we review the use of Saccharomyces cerevisiae as a powerful model organism for studying ...

Exosome Tethering Requires Tetherin Homodimerisation

open access: yesBiology of the Cell, Volume 117, Issue 12, December 2025.
Rather than being released from cells, exosomes can be retained at the plasma membrane via the protein tetherin. Here, we demonstrate that exosome tethering requires the formation of tetherin homodimers, and that mutations in tetherin that impair homodimer formation impair exosome tethering.

Actin polymerization in the endosomal pathway, but not on the Coxiella-containing vacuole, is essential for pathogen growth. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Pathogens, 2018
Coxiella burnetii is an intracellular bacterium that replicates within an expansive phagolysosome-like vacuole. Fusion between the Coxiella-containing vacuole (CCV) and late endosomes/multivesicular bodies requires Rab7, the HOPS tethering complex, and ...
