ATP-independent Control of Vac8 Palmitoylation by a SNARE Subcomplex on Yeast Vacuoles [PDF]
, 2005 Yeast vacuole fusion requires palmitoylated Vac8. We previously showed that Vac8 acylation occurs early in the fusion reaction, is blocked by antibodies against Sec18 (yeast N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive fusion protein (NSF)), and is mediated by the R-SNARE

The Toxoplasma gondii active serine hydrolase 4 regulates parasite division and intravacuolar parasite architecture [PDF]
, 2018 Hydrolase are enzymes that regulate diverse biological processes, including posttranslational protein modifications. Recent work identified four active serine hydrolases (ASHs) in Toxoplasma gondii as candidate depalmitoylases. However, only TgPPT1 (ASH1)

Role of vacuoles in phosphorus storage and remobilization.
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2017 Vacuoles play a fundamental role in storage and remobilization of various nutrients, including phosphorus (P), an essential element for cell growth and development. Cells acquire P primarily in the form of inorganic orthophosphate (Pi). However, the form

Cell Structure and Function, 1998 We studied the effects of bafilomycin A1, a potent and specific inhibitor of vacuolar H+ ATPase (V-ATPase), on the process of autophagy in rat hepatoma cell line, H-4-II-E cells.

New Phytologist, 1987 SUMMARYMany plant cells are characterized by the presence of a vacuole (hypertrophied lysosome) occupying a large fraction of the protoplast. The possible benefits of the presence of the vacuole can be divided into those which are related merely to the increased volume of the protoplast, independent of the nature of the vacuolar contents, and those ...

Anti-inflammatory effects of yeast-derived vacuoles on LPS-induced murine macrophage activation
Microbiology Spectrum, 2023 Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a single-celled fungal microorganism. S. cerevisiae-derived vacuoles are closely related to mammalian lysosomes, which play a role in the degradation of macromolecules by various hydrolytic enzymes.

Pelodictyon phaeoclathratifovme sp. nov., a new brown-colored member of the Chlorobiaceae forming net-like colonies [PDF]
, 1989 A new strain of the green sulfur bacteria was isolated from the monimolimnion of Buchensee (near Radolfzell, Lake Constance region, FRG). Single cells were rod-shaped, nonmotile and contained gas vacuoles. Typical net-like colonies were formed by ternary

mBio, 2015 The enteropathogenic bacterium Shigella flexneri uses a type 3 secretion apparatus (T3SA) to transfer proteins dubbed translocators and effectors inside host cells, inducing bacterial uptake and subsequent lysis of the entry vacuole.
