Compound exocytosis and cumulative fusion in eosinophils.
Focal release of cytotoxic proteins by eosinophils onto the target surface plays an important role in parasite killing. Degranulation was stimulated by intracellular application of calcium and guanosine 5'-3-O-(thio)triphosphate via the recording patch pipette or via streptolysin-O permeabilization. Exocytotic fusion was monitored by capacitance measurements, whereas release of fluorescent weak...
متن کاملI-35: Polar Body Analysis by Array CGH Identifies Women with Varying Susceptibility to Aneuploidy and Suggests that Non-disjunction Is Not The Predominant Mechanism Leading to Aneuploidy in Humans
Background: The maternal age effect for trisomy is well known. However what is less established is whether certain women are more (or less) prone to segregation errors, independent of age. Trisomy arises primarily through maternal meiosis I chromosome segregation errors however the precise mechanism by which these errors occur is unclear. Current dogma attributes the origin of trisomy to malseg...
متن کاملWhy Believe That There Is a God?
This article presents an argument for the existence of God, showing that the evident phenomena are best explained by supposing that a God causes them. The argument is based on the inductive force of four very evident general phenomena: that there is a physical Universe; that it is governed by very simple natural laws; that those laws are such as to lead to the existence of human bodies; and tha...
متن کاملStructural and Functional Analysis of the Mitotic Rotamase Pin1 Suggests Substrate Recognition Is Phosphorylation Dependent
The human rotamase or peptidyl-prolyl cis-trans isomerase Pin1 is a conserved mitotic regulator essential for the G2/M transition of the eukaryotic cell cycle. We report the 1.35 A crystal structure of Pin1 complexed with an AlaPro dipeptide and the initial characterization of Pin1's functional properties. The crystallographic structure as well as pH titration studies and mutagenesis of an acti...
متن کاملThe regulated exocytosis of enlargeosomes is mediated by a SNARE machinery that includes VAMP4.
The mechanisms governing the fast, regulated exocytosis of enlargeosomes have been unknown, except for the participation of annexin-2 in a pre-fusion step. We investigated whether any SNAREs are involved. In PC12-27 cells, which are enlargeosome-rich, the expressed SNAREs exhibited various distributions (trans-Golgi network, scattered puncta, plasma membrane); however, only VAMP4 was colocalize...
