The biogenesis of lysosomes and lysosome-related organelles.
Lysosomes were once considered the end point of endocytosis, simply used for macromolecule degradation. They are now recognized to be dynamic organelles, able to fuse with a variety of targets and to be re-formed after fusion events. They are also now known to be the site of nutrient sensing and signaling to the cell nucleus. In addition, lysosomes are secretory organelles, with specialized mac...
متن کاملIncreased thermal stability of chromatin containing 5-bromodeoxyuridine-substituted DNA.
The replacement of thymidine by 5-bromodeoxyuridine in DNA leads to a greatly enhanced stability of chromatin from hepatoma tissue culture or embryonic rat pancreas, as measured by thermal chromatography on hydroxylapatite. The increased stability is directly correlated with the degree of bromodeoxyuridine substitution. On the other hand, the incorporation of bromodeoxyuridine into DNA results ...
متن کاملVCP-dependent muscle degeneration is linked to defects in a dynamic tubular lysosomal network in vivo
Lysosomes are classically viewed as vesicular structures to which cargos are delivered for degradation. Here, we identify a network of dynamic, tubular lysosomes that extends throughout Drosophila muscle, in vivo. Live imaging reveals that autophagosomes merge with tubular lysosomes and that lysosomal membranes undergo extension, retraction, fusion and fission. The dynamics and integrity of thi...
متن کاملTargeted Protein Destabilization Reveals an Estrogen-mediated ER Stress Response
Accumulation of unfolded proteins within the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) of eukaryotic cells leads to an unfolded protein response (UPR) that either restores homeostasis or commits the cells to apoptosis. Tools traditionally used to study the UPR are proapoptotic and thus confound analysis of long-term cellular responses to ER stress. Here, we describe an ER-localized HaloTag (ERHT) protein that...
متن کاملcAMP regulates Ca2+-dependent exocytosis of lysosomes and lysosome-mediated cell invasion by trypanosomes.
Ca2+-regulated exocytosis, previously believed to be restricted to specialized cells, was recently recognized as a ubiquitous process. In mammalian fibroblasts and epithelial cells, exocytic vesicles mobilized by Ca2+ were identified as lysosomes. Here we show that elevation in intracellular cAMP potentiates Ca2+-dependent exocytosis of lysosomes in normal rat kidney fibroblasts. The process ca...
