Organelle Transport: A Park-and-Ride System for Melanosomes
Those of us experiencing graying hair may be more sensitive to the term melanosome than other readers. You will find no remedy within this article, but rather a jealous look at the organisms which are able to manipulate their skin color, for example to match the appearance of their environment. In fish and amphibians, this change is brought about by movements of pigment-containing vesicles, mel...

questions. Why, for example, did the two analytical approaches taken by Lander et al. [8] (a general linear model and a circuit model) come to opposing conclusions?Whichmechanismsmake one hostile habitat, clear-fells, act as a barrier, while the hostile pine plantations enhanced connectivity? Andhowmight theCirce principle apply to the main pollinator taxon, bees (Hymenoptera: Apiformes), which...
متن کاملOrganelle Interactions: Melanosomes and Mitochondria Get Cozy
Melanosomes make pigments and mitochondria make ATP. A recent study has shown that these two organelles are connected by fibrillar bridges and that their close physical contact may promote the biogenesis of the melanosome by providing it with ATP.
متن کاملMelanosomes on the move: a model to understand organelle dynamics.
Advances in live-cell microscopy have revealed the extraordinarily dynamic nature of intracellular organelles. Moreover, movement appears to be critical in establishing and maintaining intracellular organization and organellar and cellular function. Motility is regulated by the activity of organelle-associated motor proteins, kinesins, dyneins and myosins, which move cargo along polar MT (micro...
متن کاملCommuting Pattern with Park-and-Ride Option for Heterogeneous Commuters
We study the effect of the parking on heterogeneous commuters’ travel choice in a competitive transportation systemwhich consists of a subway and a parallel road with a bottleneck of limited service capacity. Everymorning, commuters either use their private cars only or drive their cars to the bottleneck, park there, and then take the subway to the destination. Considering the effects caused by...
