Molecular Biomedicine, 2022 Intracellular vesicle trafficking is the fundamental process to maintain the homeostasis of membrane-enclosed organelles in eukaryotic cells. These organelles transport cargo from the donor membrane to the target membrane through the cargo containing ...

Phospholipase A2-based probes to study vesicle trafficking. [PDF]
Cell Rep Methods, 2022 Vesicle exo- and endocytosis mediate important biological functions, including synaptic transmission. In this issue of Cell Reports Methods, Seong J. An et al. found that the fluorescently tagged C2 domain of phospholipase A2 binds to membrane phosphatidylcholine and thus labels vesicle membrane, allowing for super-resolution and electron microscopic ...

Cdc42 and Vesicle Trafficking in Polarized Cells [PDF]
Traffic, 2010 Cdc42, a highly conserved small GTPase of the Rho family, acts as a molecular switch to modulate a wide range of signaling pathways. Vesicle trafficking and cell polarity are two processes Cdc42 is known to regulate. Although the trafficking and polarity machineries are each well understood, how they interact to cross-regulate each other in cell ...

A Sec14 domain protein is required for photoautotrophic growth and chloroplast vesicle formation in Arabidopsis thaliana. [PDF]
, 2020 In eukaryotic photosynthetic organisms, the conversion of solar into chemical energy occurs in thylakoid membranes in the chloroplast. How thylakoid membranes are formed and maintained is poorly understood.

Vesicle Trafficking: ROP–RIC Roundabout [PDF]
Current Biology, 2012 Mechanisms governing dynamic protein recycling include small GTPases that activate/inactivate their partner proteins to affect cytoskeletal dynamics, and thereby polar growth, asymmetric cell shape and physiological responses to external stimuli. Three recent studies illustrate the control of PIN endocytosis by ROP-RIC activity in leaf pavement cells ...

Plant Cells under Attack: Unconventional Endomembrane Trafficking during Plant Defense
Plants, 2020 Since plants lack specialized immune cells, each cell has to defend itself independently against a plethora of different pathogens. Therefore, successful plant defense strongly relies on precise and efficient regulation of intracellular processes in ...

Diverse cellular strategies for the export of leaderless proteins
National Science Open, 2022 Unconventional protein export/secretion (UPE/UPS), in contrast to the classical ER-Golgi-dependent export/secretion of proteins with a leader sequence (signal peptide), employs multiple means to release leaderless cargoes (and in some special cases ...

Rab-mediated vesicle trafficking in cancer [PDF]
Journal of Biomedical Science, 2016 A large group of small Rab GTPases which mediate secretory and endosomal membrane transport, as well as autophagosome biogenesis, are essential components of vesicle trafficking machinery. Specific Rab protein together with the cognate effectors coordinates the dynamics of trafficking pathway and determines the cargo proteins destination.
