Nearly all the molecules that are expressed in mammalian cells reach their correct intracellular locations by virtue of sophisticated transport-and-delivery systems. Central among these is the ...

The focus of my research program is to elucidate fundamental cell biological mechanisms underlying intracellular membrane trafficking and how these mechanisms are usurped by human pathogens and ...

Melanosomes are specialized intracellular organelles of pigment cells in which melanin pigments are synthesized and stored. They are members of a family of cell-type-specific lysosome-related ...

Physicochemical similarities between K+ and Na+ result in interactions between their homeostatic mechanisms. The physiological interactions between these two ions was investigated by examining aspects ...

An Arabidopsis peptide transport gene was cloned from an Arabidopsis cDNA library by functionally complementing a yeast peptide transport mutant. The Arabidopsis plant peptide transporter (AtPTR2) ...
