Ca2+-dependent transmitter release is the most important signaling mechanism for fast information transfer between neurons. Transmitter release takes places at highly specialized active zones with sub-micrometer dimension, which contain the molecular machi ...
The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the site of maturation for secretory and membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. Unsuccessful folding attempts are eventually interrupted and most folding-defective polypeptides are dislocated across the ER membrane and deg ...
At presynaptic active zones, neurotransmitter release is initiated by the opening of voltage-gated Ca²+ channels close to docked vesicles. The mechanisms that enrich Ca²+ channels at active zones are, however, largely unknown, possibly because of the limit ...
Several regulators of endoplasmic reticulum (ER)associated degradation (ERAD) have a shorter half-life compared to conventional ER chaperones. At steady state, they are selectively removed from the ER by poorly defined events collectively referred to as ER ...
The Golgi apparatus consists of a series of flattened cisternal membranes that are aligned in parallel to form stacks. Cytosolic-oriented Golgi-associated proteins have been identified that may coordinate or maintain the Golgi architecture. Here, we descri ...
The efficacy and success of many cellular processes is dependent on a tight orchestration of proteins trafficking to and from their site(s) of action in a time-controlled fashion. Recently, a dynamic cycle of palmitoylation/de-palmitoylation has been shown ...
Currently, both congenital abnormalities and developmental problems of the bladder in children, and other dysfunctions in adults, require reconstructive surgery. Such correction involves transplant action of native tissues (such as gastrointestinal segment ...
Plasmodium sporozoites can move at high speed for several tens of minutes, which is essential for the initial stage of a malaria infection. The crescent-shaped sporozoites move on 2D substrates preferably in the same direction on circular paths giving rais ...
Fast neurotransmitter release is essential for neuron-neuron communication and is initiated by the opening of voltage-gated Ca2+ channels close to docked vesicles at the presynaptic active zone. The high concentration of Ca2+ channels at the active zone is ...
Studies in yeast are providing critical insights into the mechanisms of neurodegeneration in Parkinson's disease (PD). A recent study shows that disruption of vesicular trafficking between the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and the Golgi, caused by the overexp ...
