Protein folding in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is assisted by several molecular chaperones and folding factors. These proteins are key players in the quality-control (QC) system, which regulates ...
Macrophages accumulate free cholesterol in advanced atherosclerotic lesions, resulting in macrophage apoptosis and progression of lesions 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8. Previous studies with cultured macrophages ...
The Golgi body (or Golgi complex, apparatus), and Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are both organelles found in the majority of eukaryotic cells. They are very closely associated and show both similarities ...
The endoplasmic reticulum is the protein-making factory within cells consisting of tightly stacked sheets of membrane studded with the molecules that make proteins. Now, researchers have refined a new ...
The endoplasmic reticulum plays a more important role in type 2 diabetes and its complications than previously believed, new research suggests. To make their discovery, scientists identified several ...
The field of cellular biology has seen increasing interest in the interactions between subcellular organelles, particularly ...
PHOSPHATE TRANSPORTER1 (PHT1) genes encode phosphate (Pi) transporters that play a fundamental role in Pi acquisition and remobilization in plants. Mutation of the Arabidopsis thaliana PHOSPHATE ...
3D electron tomography reveals glycogen particles (purple) clustered on the surface of lipid droplets (yellow), closely associated with endoplasmic reticulum membranes (blue) and mitochondria (red), ...
Textbook drawings of the cell’s largest organelle might need to be updated based on new images. Super-resolution shots of the endoplasmic reticulum reveal tightly packed tubes where previous pictures ...
