Vacuole membrane protein 1, autophagy and much more.
Vacuole membrane protein 1 (Vmp1) is a putative transmembrane protein that has been associated with different functions including autophagy, cell adhesion, and membrane traffic. Highly similar proteins are present in lower eukaryotes and plants although a homologue is absent in the fungi lineage. We have recently described the first loss-of-function mutation for a Vmp1 homologue in a model syst...
متن کاملVacuole membrane protein 1 is an endoplasmic reticulum protein required for organelle biogenesis, protein secretion, and development.
Vacuole membrane protein 1 (Vmp1) is membrane protein of unknown molecular function that has been associated with pancreatitis and cancer. The social amoeba Dictyostelium discoideum has a vmp1-related gene that we identified previously in a functional genomic study. Loss-of-function of this gene leads to a severe phenotype that compromises Dictyostelium growth and development. The expression of...
متن کاملAntibiotics and much more.
The synthesis of biologically active natural and synthetic compounds is without doubt a topical field of activity. A forum for the exchange of the most recent results in this area was provided by the 9th International Conference on the Chemistry of Antibiotics and Other Bioactive Compounds (ICCA-9), organized by St$phane Quideau (University of Bordeaux), which took place in Arcachon (France) du...
متن کاملVacuole membrane fusion
Pore models of membrane fusion postulate that cylinders of integral membrane proteins can initiate a fusion pore after conformational rearrangement of pore subunits. In the fusion of yeast vacuoles, V-ATPase V0 sectors, which contain a central cylinder of membrane integral proteolipid subunits, associate to form a transcomplex that might resemble an intermediate postulated in some pore models. ...
متن کاملAlterations of the Coxiella burnetii Replicative Vacuole Membrane Integrity and Interplay with the Autophagy Pathway
Coxiella burnetii, the etiologic agent of Q fever, is a Gram-negative obligate intracellular bacterium. It has been previously described that both the endocytic and autophagic pathways contribute to the Coxiella replicative vacuole (CRV) generation. Galectins are β-galactoside-binding lectins that accumulate in the cytosol before being secreted via a non-conventional secretory pathway. It has b...
