Organelle size control - increasing vacuole content activates SNAREs to augment organelle volume through homotypic fusion.
Cells control the size of their compartments relative to cell volume, but there is also size control within each organelle. Yeast vacuoles neither burst nor do they collapse into a ruffled morphology, indicating that the volume of the organellar envelope is adjusted to the amount of content. It is poorly understood how this adjustment is achieved. We show that the accumulating content of yeast ...
متن کاملOrganelle acidification negatively regulates vacuole membrane fusion in vivo
The V-ATPase is a proton pump consisting of a membrane-integral V0 sector and a peripheral V1 sector, which carries the ATPase activity. In vitro studies of yeast vacuole fusion and evidence from worms, flies, zebrafish and mice suggested that V0 interacts with the SNARE machinery for membrane fusion, that it promotes the induction of hemifusion and that this activity requires physical presence...
متن کاملOrganelle docking: R-SNAREs are late.
F usion of cellular compartments is a central aspect of cellular homeostasis and intercellular communication in virtually all eukaryotic cells. Although the general principles of the fusion reaction are beginning to be firmly established, it is also becoming clear that several distinct molecular events need to occur first, before the actual fusion reaction can. Coming from different angles, dif...
متن کاملOrganelle Size Scaling of the Budding Yeast Vacuole by Relative Growth and Inheritance
It has long been noted that larger animals have larger organs compared to smaller animals of the same species, a phenomenon termed scaling [1]. Julian Huxley proposed an appealingly simple model of "relative growth"-in which an organ and the whole body grow with their own intrinsic rates [2]-that was invoked to explain scaling in organs from fiddler crab claws to human brains. Because organ siz...
متن کاملOrganelle Size Equalization by a Constitutive Process
How cells control organelle size is an elusive problem. Two predominant models for size control can be distinguished: (1) induced control, where organelle genesis, maintenance, and disassembly are three separate programs that are activated in response to size change, and (2) constitutive control, where stable size results from the balance between continuous organelle assembly and disassembly. T...
