A new organelle has been discovered in human cells — and scientists call it a "hemifusome."Like the full-size organs in our ...

Protein-sorting mechanisms ensure that membrane proteins are specifically recognized among thousands of different proteins -- and are sent to the membrane, where they're needed.

Marks studies protein sorting – determining how proteins are delivered to the correct organelle, or subcompartments, within the cell. He investigates this basic process in pigment cells, ...

Researchers have deciphered a biochemical mechanism that ensures that newly formed proteins are processed correctly when they leave the cell's own protein factories. This solves a decade-old puzzle in ...

A recent study involving researchers from the University of Basel reveals that slowing down the intracellular transport of ...

Endosomal trafficking and protein sorting constitute fundamental processes that govern the intracellular localisation and recycling of membrane proteins in eukaryotic cells. Endosomes act as ...

Protein sorting to distinct plasma membrane domains in polarized epithelial cells is thought to occur in the Golgi complex, and to be mediated in part by lipid rafts. Now, analysis of protein ...
