Endosomal stress, the aberrant accumulation of K63 ubiquitin chains on dysfunctional endosomes, activates the TAB2/3–TAK1–NF-kB and p62–Keap1–Nrf2 pathways, resulting in the expression of immune and ...

Scientists have linked loss-of-function mutations in SORL1 to overproduction of Aβ and to early onset Alzheimer’s disease. Now, in the June 2 Cell Reports, researchers led by Jessica Young at the ...

A recent study by a group of scientists has revealed that a different mechanism is responsible for the formation and maintenance of the cell organelle called endosome that sorts and distributes ...

What can be reused and what can be disposed of? Cells also face this tricky task. Researchers from the Biozentrum of the University of Basel have now discovered a cellular machine, called FERARI, that ...

Endocytosis is a cellular process whereby molecules that cannot pass through a cell membrane passively are actively transported from the extracellular environment into the intracellular environment.
