pH Homeostasis of cellular organelles.
An optimal pH is maintained in each secretory and endocytic organelle by the balance between active H(+) pumping and passive H(+) efflux. The progressive acidification of secretory organelles does not reflect an increased proton pumping activity but rather the decreased conduction of a "proton leak" pathway resembling the recently cloned voltage-gated proton channels.
متن کاملCooperative protein transport in cellular organelles.
Compartmentalization into biochemically distinct organelles constantly exchanging material is one of the hallmarks of eukaryotic cells. In the most naive picture of interorganelle transport driven by concentration gradients, concentration differences between organelles should relax. We determine the conditions under which cooperative transport, i.e., based on molecular recognition, allows for t...
متن کاملMechanisms shaping the membranes of cellular organelles.
Cellular organelles have characteristic morphologies that arise as a result of different local membrane curvatures. A striking example is the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), which consists of ER tubules with high curvature in cross-section, peripheral ER sheets with little curvature except at their edges and the nuclear envelope with low curvature except where the nuclear pores are inserted. The ER...
متن کاملFast Segmentation of Sub-Cellular Organelles
Segmentation and counting sub-cellular structure of size range 0.1 μm to 1 μm is a very challenging problem even for medical experts. Image acquisition time for the state-of-the-art fluorescence microscopes is about 1-5 seconds. A fast and efficient method for segmentation and counting of sub-cellular structure is proposed for concurrent post-processing of fluorescence microscopy images. The pr...
متن کاملStochastic Model of Maturation and Vesicular Exchange in Cellular Organelles.
The dynamical organization of membrane-bound organelles along intracellular transport pathways relies on vesicular exchange between organelles and on the maturation of the organelle's composition by enzymatic reactions or exchange with the cytoplasm. The relative importance of each mechanism in controlling organelle dynamics remains controversial, in particular for transport through the Golgi a...
