Structures of yeast vesicle trafficking proteins [PDF]
AbstractIn protein transport between organelles, interactions of v‐ and t‐SNARE proteins are required for fusion of proteincontaining vesicles with appropriate target compartments. Mammalian SNARE proteins have been observed to interact with NSF and SNAP, and yeast SNAREs with yeast homologues of NSF and SNAP proteins.

Viral Components Trafficking with(in) Extracellular Vesicles
The global public health burden exerted by viruses partially stems from viruses’ ability to subdue host cells into creating an environment that promotes their multiplication (i.e., pro-viral). It has been discovered that viruses alter cell physiology by transferring viral material through extracellular vesicles (EVs), which serve as vehicles for ...

Phosphatidylinositol 4,5-bisphosphate (PI(4,5)P2) signaling is transient and spatially confined in live cells. How this pattern of signaling regulates transmitter release and hormone secretion has not been addressed. We devised an optogenetic approach to

LRRK2 Modulates the Exocyst Complex Assembly by Interacting with Sec8
Mutations in LRRK2 play a critical role in both familial and sporadic Parkinson’s disease (PD). Up to date, the role of LRRK2 in PD onset and progression remains largely unknown.

Microsporidia are a big group of single-celled obligate intracellular organisms infecting most animals and some protozoans. These minimalist eukaryotes lack numerous genes in metabolism and vesicle trafficking.

LRRK2: A Problem Lurking in Vesicle Trafficking? [PDF]
Mutations in leucine-rich repeat kinase 2 (LRRK2) are the major genetic cause of Parkinson's disease (PD), accounting for ∼5% of familial and 0.5–2% of sporadic cases ([Dachsel and Farrer, 2010][1]).

Cadmium (Cd) is a toxic heavy metal in soil that seriously threatens crop production, food security, and human health. Syntaxins, a prototype family of Soluble N-ethyl-maleimide-associated protein receptors (SNAREs) involved in vesicle trafficking, are ...

Dysregulations of Synaptic Vesicle Trafficking in Schizophrenia [PDF]
Schizophrenia is a serious psychiatric illness which is experienced by about 1 % of individuals worldwide and has a debilitating impact on perception, cognition, and social function. Over the years, several models/hypotheses have been developed which link schizophrenia to dysregulations of the dopamine, glutamate, and serotonin receptor pathways.

Fluorescent probes allow dynamic visualization of phosphoinositides in living cells (left), whereas mass spectrometry provides high‐sensitivity, isomer‐resolved quantitation (right). Their synergistic use captures complementary aspects of lipid signaling. This review illustrates how these approaches reveal the spatiotemporal regulation and quantitative
