Adaptor protein (AP) complexes play central roles in intracellular vesicular trafficking by coupling cargo selection to ...

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is an essential cellular process that mediates the internalisation of diverse plasma membrane components and extracellular cargo. This mechanism relies on the ...

For Amy Engevik, an epithelial cell biologist at the Medical University of South Carolina who studies cell function in the gastrointestinal tract, protein location matters more than abundance. She ...

Intracellular protein trafficking and secretion of proteins into the extracellular environment are sequential and tightly regulated processes in eukaryotic cells. Conventionally, proteins that are ...

When it comes to neurodegenerative diseases such as amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) and certain forms of dementia, ...

Oxidative stress induced by 6-OHDA stimulates autophagy flux, which enhances STX17-mediated autolysosome formation, leading to the degradation of autophagosomal contents. However, in response to ...
