Hyperspectral imaging has provided an insight into how cells organize and prioritize organelle growth.
Mobile arrays of vacuole ripples are common in plant cells. Plant Cell Rep 17, 917–920 (1998) Yamamoto, Y. et al. Behavior of vacuoles during microspore and pollen development in Arabidopsis ...
Damage to the cell wall can lead to vacuole rupture and cell death. A conserved mechanism involving ATG8ylation, where ATG8 is relocated to the vacuole membrane, helps protect against this.
Seed plants, such as soybeans, store large amounts of protein in specialized organelles called protein storage vacuoles. These proteins not only sustain seedling growth but also serve as a major ...
The humble vacuole, a garbage dump inside cells, turns out to play an important role in the aging process. Skip to main content. Scientific American. March 1, 2024. 6 min read.
A liquid called cytoplasm, made mostly of water, fills the inside of each cell. The vacuole, which is the largest compartment within an apple cell, stores most of the apple’s water and sugar. A ...
SopB acts as a phosphatase—it aids in removing phosphate groups from phosphoinositide, a type of membrane lipid. SopB helps Salmonella change the dynamics of the vacuole—specifically it alters ...
Exciting plant vacuoles Date: June 14, 2019 Source: University of Würzburg Summary: Researchers have filled two knowledge gaps: The vacuoles of plant cells can be excited and the TPC1 ion channel ...
The vacuoles crowded near neuronal membranes and expressed the marker EEA-1 on their membranes, suggesting they were endocytic. Unlike the notorious vacuoles detected in prion disease, these vacuoles ...
