Microtubules play a role in trafficking prevacuolar compartments to vacuoles in tobacco pollen tubes [PDF]
Fine regulation of exocytosis and endocytosis plays a basic role in pollen tube growth. Excess plasma membrane secreted during pollen tube elongation is known to be retrieved by endocytosis and partially reused in secretory pathways through the Golgi ...

To Lead or to Follow: Contribution of the Plant Vacuole to Cell Growth
Cell division and cell elongation are fundamental processes for growth. In contrast to animal cells, plant cells are surrounded by rigid walls and therefore loosening of the wall is required during elongation.

A microscopy-based kinetic analysis of yeast vacuolar protein sorting
Saccharomyces cerevisiae is amenable to studying membrane traffic by live-cell fluorescence microscopy. We used this system to explore two aspects of cargo protein traffic through prevacuolar endosome (PVE) compartments to the vacuole.

Saccharomyces cerevisiae Vac8 is a vacuolar membrane protein, which functions in vacuole inheritance and fusion, nucleus-vacuole junctions, autophagy and the cytoplasm-to-vacuole-targeting pathway. Here, we analyzed Vac8 of the yeast Hansenula polymorpha

A Review of Plant Vacuoles: Formation, Located Proteins, and Functions
Vacuoles, cellular membrane-bound organelles, are the largest compartments of cells, occupying up to 90% of the volume of plant cells. Vacuoles are formed by the biosynthetic and endocytotic pathways.

VPS45 is required for both diffuse and tip growth of Arabidopsis thaliana cells
IntroductionVPS45 belongs to the Sec1/Munc18 family of proteins, which interact with and regulate Qa-SNARE function during membrane fusion. We have shown previously that Arabidopsis thaliana VPS45 interacts with the SYP61/SYP41/VTI12 SNARE complex, which

Vacuole: a repository to control fruit flavor quality
The content of sugar and organic acid is the main factor that determines the fruit flavor quality and yield. More specifically, the ratio of sugar to organic acid affects the taste and nutritional value of fruits.

Wss1 metalloprotease partners with Cdc48/Doa1 in processing genotoxic SUMO conjugates
Sumoylation during genotoxic stress regulates the composition of DNA repair complexes. The yeast metalloprotease Wss1 clears chromatin-bound sumoylated proteins.
