Multivesicular bodies (MVBs) are crucial intermediates in the trafficking of ubiquitinated
receptors and other cargo destined for lysosomes. The formation of MVBs by invagination of …

Endocytosis and endosomal trafficking are essential processes in cells that control the
dynamics and turnover of plasma membrane proteins, such as receptors, transporters, and …

Endocytosis provides a major route of entry for membrane proteins, lipids, and extracellular
molecules into the cell. Recent evidence indicates that multiple cellular processes require …

Highlights•Plants produce extracellular vesicles (EVs) in response to infection.•Recent
advances in EV purification are now revealing the contents of plant EVs.•Plant EVs are …

The energy sensor AMP-activated protein kinase (AMPK) can activate autophagy when
cellular energy production becomes compromised. However, the degree to which nutrient …

Although CHS is a rare disease, the Chediak-like family of proteins is providing insight into
the regulation of vesicle trafficking. Understanding the basic mechanisms that govern vesicle …

Anthocyanins are flavonoid pigments synthesized in the cytoplasm and stored inside
vacuoles. Many plant species accumulate densely packed, 3-to 10-μm diameter …

The trans Golgi network (TGN) of plant cells sorts and packages Golgi products into
secretory (SV) and clathrin‐coated (CCV) vesicles. We have analyzed of TGN cisternae in …

Endosomal trafficking plays an integral role in various eukaryotic cell activities and serves as
a basis for higher-order functions in multicellular organisms. An understanding of the …

Polar membrane cargo delivery is crucial for establishing cell polarity and for directional
transport processes. In plants, polar trafficking mediates the dynamic asymmetric distribution …
