Adaptors, junction dynamics, and spermatogenesis.
Adaptors are component proteins of junctional complexes in all epithelia, including the seminiferous epithelium of the mammalian testis. They recruit other regulatory and structural proteins to the site of both anchoring junctions (such as cell-cell actin-based adherens junctions [AJs], e.g., ectoplasmic specialization [ES] and tubulobulbar complex, which are both testis-specific cell-cell acti...
متن کاملq-deformed dynamics and Josephson junction
We define a generalized rate equation for an observable in quantum mechanics, that involves a parameter q and whose limit q → 1 gives the standard Heisenberg equation. The generalized rate equation is used to study dynamics of current biased Josephson junction. It is observed that this toy model incorporates diffraction like effects in the critical current. Physical interpretation for q is prov...
متن کاملModeling Tight Junction Dynamics and Oscillations
Tight junction (TJ) permeability responds to changes of extracellular Ca(2+) concentration. This can be gauged through changes of the transepithelial electrical conductance (G) determined in the absence of apical Na(+). The early events of TJ dynamics were evaluated by the fast Ca(2+) switch assay (FCSA) (Lacaz-Vieira, 2000), which consists of opening the TJs by removing basal calcium (Ca(2+)(b...
متن کاملClathrin Adaptors Really Adapt
The clathrin pathway is the principal route for receptor-mediated endocytosis and growth factor downregulation. Heterotetrameric clathrin adaptors directly link the clathrin coat with cargo transmembrane proteins that are sorted into coated pits and vesicles. A paper in this issue of Cell describes the atomic structure of the adaptor-protein 2 (AP-2) core, the portion that makes contacts with t...

Because of their key The clathrin pathway is the principal route for receprole in linking sorted proteins with the clathrin coat, the tor-mediated endocytosis and growth factor downregassembly factors are now referred to as heterotetramulation. Heterotetrameric clathrin adaptors directly eric clathrin adaptors. link the clathrin coat with cargo transmembrane pro...
