Organelle targeting: third level of drug targeting
Drug discovery and drug delivery are two main aspects for treatment of a variety of disorders. However, the real bottleneck associated with systemic drug administration is the lack of target-specific affinity toward a pathological site, resulting in systemic toxicity and innumerable other side effects as well as higher dosage requirement for efficacy. An attractive strategy to increase the ther...
متن کاملNovel organelle-targeting signals in viral proteins
INTRODUCTION Peroxisomes are vital cellular organelles controlling important metabolic functions like hydrogen peroxide degradation, fatty acid metabolism, gluconeogenesis, toxin degradation, etc. (Flatmark et al., 1988; van den Bosch et al., 1992; Masters, 1997; Lopez-Huertas et al., 2000). Certain human metabolic disorders such as Zellweger syndrome, neonatal adrenoleukodystrophy, infantile R...
متن کاملMechanisms of Polarized Organelle Distribution in Neurons
Neurons are highly polarized cells exhibiting axonal and somatodendritic domains with distinct complements of cytoplasmic organelles. Although some organelles are widely distributed throughout the neuronal cytoplasm, others are segregated to either the axonal or somatodendritic domains. Recent findings show that organelle segregation is largely established at a pre-axonal exclusion zone (PAEZ) ...
متن کاملEndosymbiosis: Protein Targeting Further Erodes the Organelle/Symbiont Distinction
New work in aphids shows that a nuclear-encoded protein resulting from a horizontal gene transfer is targeted to a bacterial symbiont, further blurring the distinction between organelle and symbiont.
متن کاملBasal body movements orchestrate membrane organelle division and cell morphogenesis in Trypanosoma brucei.
The defined shape and single-copy organelles of Trypanosoma brucei mean that it provides an excellent model in which to study how duplication and segregation of organelles is interfaced with morphogenesis of overall cell shape and form. The centriole or basal body of eukaryotic cells is often seen to be at the centre of such processes. We have used a combination of electron microscopy and elect...
