Hepatitis C virus(HCV) infects hepatocytes, polarized cells in the liver. Chronic HCV infection often leads to steatosis, fibrosis, cirrhosis and hepatocellular carcinoma, and it has been identified as the leading cau...
Most plant cells contain a large central vacuole that is essential to maintain cellular turgor. We report a new mutant allele of VTI11 that implicates the SNARE protein VTI11 in homotypic fusion of protein storage and...
The most striking morphological feature of eukaryotic cells is the presence of various membrane-enclosed compartments. These compartments, including organelles and transient transport intermediates, are not static. Ra...
Phosphatidylinositol phosphates (PtdInsPs) play critical roles in signal transduction pathways, cytoskele-tal regulation, and vesicular trafficking and are implicated in multiple disease pathways. In the nucleus, Ptdl...
