In this study, the authors use the zebrafish to investigate how the microbiome affects a specialized gut cell called the lysosome rich enterocyte. They use a combination of functional assays for ...

The Bagnat and Rawls groups' previous published work (Park et al., 2019) described the kinetics and genetic basis of protein absorption in a specialized cell population of young vertebrates termed ...

This enzyme is a membrane protein found in the endoplasmic reticulum and in the lysosomes of the cell.

Feng Wei at the Institute of Biophysics, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has made significant strides in understanding the BORC complex, a key player in lysosome transport and localization.

It is postulated that the enzyme appearing in the urine of both normal subjects and patients with pyelonephritis comes from lysosomes in the tubular cells. The increased excretion rate in ...

Cold-adapted enzymes, produced in cold-adapted organisms, are a class of enzyme with catalytic activity at low temperatures, high temperature sensitivity, and the ability to adapt to cold stimulation.

For a long time, lysosomes were considered as mere waste bags for cellular constituents. Thankfully, studies carried out in the past 15 years were brimming with elegant and crucial breakthroughs in ...
