Liposomes encapsulating polymeric chitosan based vesicles - a vesicle in vesicle system for drug delivery [PDF]
, 2000 Drug delivery systems comprising vesicles prepared from one amphiphile encapsulating vesicles prepared from a second amphiphile have not been prepared previously due to a tendency of the bilayer components of the different vesicles to mix during ...

Recruitment of AP-1 clathrin adaptors to liposomal membranes [PDF]
, 2004 Protein and membrane traffic between organelles within the endocytic and exocytic pathway is mediated most prominently by coated vesicles. These vesicles are formed by the assembly of cytosolic coat proteins onto the donor membrane, which deform it into ...

Secretory vesicles are preferentially targeted to areas of low molecular SNARE density [PDF]
, 2012 Intercellular communication is commonly mediated by the regulated fusion, or exocytosis, of vesicles with the cell surface. SNARE (soluble N-ethymaleimide sensitive factor attachment protein receptor) proteins are the catalytic core of the secretory ...

Electrophysiological Characterization of the Antarease Metalloprotease from Tityus serrulatus Venom
Toxins, 2017 Scorpions are among the oldest venomous living organisms and the family Buthidae is the largest and most medically relevant one. Scorpion venoms include many toxic peptides, but recently, a metalloprotease from Tityus serrulatus called antarease was ...

Intravesicular Phosphatase PHOSPHO1 Function in Enamel Mineralization and Prism Formation
Frontiers in Physiology, 2017 The transport of mineral ions from the enamel organ-associated blood vessels to the developing enamel crystals involves complex cargo packaging and carriage mechanisms across several cell layers, including the ameloblast layer and the stratum intermedium.

Synuclein Regulates Synaptic Vesicle Clustering and Docking at a Vertebrate Synapse
Frontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology, 2021 Neurotransmission relies critically on the exocytotic release of neurotransmitters from small synaptic vesicles (SVs) at the active zone. Therefore, it is essential for neurons to maintain an adequate pool of SVs clustered at synapses in order to sustain

STARD3: A Swiss Army Knife for Intracellular Cholesterol Transport
Contact, 2019 Intracellular cholesterol transport is a complex process involving specific carrier proteins. Cholesterol-binding proteins, such as the lipid transfer protein steroidogenic acute regulatory-related lipid transfer domain-3 (STARD3), are implicated in ...
