A model for the self-organization of vesicular flux and protein distributions in the Golgi apparatus [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The generation of two non-identical membrane compartments via exchange of vesicles is considered to require two types of vesicles specified by distinct cytosolic coats that selectively recruit cargo and two membrane-bound SNARE pairs that specify fusion ...

Protein pyrophosphorylation by inositol pyrophosphates — detection, function, and regulation

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Protein pyrophosphorylation is an unusual signaling mechanism that was discovered two decades ago. It can be driven by inositol pyrophosphate messengers and influences various cellular processes. Herein, we summarize the research progress and challenges of this field, covering pathways found to be regulated by this posttranslational modification as ...

Killing Traps and Snares in North America: The Need for Stricter Checking Time Periods

open access: yesAnimals, 2019
In this review, we make the point that current checking times for killing traps and snares are inadequate or nonexistent in most North American jurisdictions.

Rab GTPases, tethers, and SNAREs work together to regulate Arabidopsis cell plate formation

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2023
Cell plates are transient structures formed by the fusion of vesicles at the center of the dividing plane; furthermore, these are precursors to new cell walls and are essential for cytokinesis.

Organelle size control - increasing vacuole content activates SNAREs to augment organelle volume through homotypic fusion. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Cells control the size of their compartments relative to cell volume, but there is also size control within each organelle. Yeast vacuoles neither burst nor do they collapse into a ruffled morphology, indicating that the volume of the organellar envelope

Mechanisms of parasite‐mediated disruption of brain vessels

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Parasites can affect the blood vessels of the brain, often causing serious neurological problems. This review explains how different parasites interact with and disrupt these vessels, what this means for brain health, and why these processes matter. Understanding these mechanisms may help us develop better ways to prevent or treat brain infections in ...

Retained inferior vena cava filter retrieval: Novel approach using tiger tooth foreign body holding forceps

open access: yesIndian Journal of Vascular and Endovascular Surgery
Only about one-third of all inferior vena cava (IVC) filters are successfully retrieved. This is largely due to factors such as IVC occlusion, filter tilt, and caval wall penetration among other reasons. IVC filter retrieval methods currently followed in

Differential Effects of Munc18s on Multiple Degranulation-Relevant Trans-SNARE Complexes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Mast cell exocytosis, which includes compound degranulation and vesicle-associated piecemeal degranulation, requires multiple Q- and R- SNAREs. It is not clear how these SNAREs pair to form functional trans-SNARE complexes and how these trans-SNARE ...

Non-oblivious Strategy Improvement [PDF]

open access: yes, 2010
We study strategy improvement algorithms for mean-payoff and parity games. We describe a structural property of these games, and we show that these structures can affect the behaviour of strategy improvement. We show how awareness of these structures can

Conserved structural motifs in PAS, LOV, and CRY proteins regulate circadian rhythms and are therapeutic targets

open access: yesFEBS Letters, EarlyView.
Cryptochrome and PAS/LOV proteins play intricate roles in circadian clocks where they act as both sensors and mediators of protein–protein interactions. Their ubiquitous presence in signaling networks has positioned them as targets for small‐molecule therapeutics. This review provides a structural introduction to these protein families.
