Modulation of the organelle specificity in Re(i) tetrazolato complexes leads to labeling of lipid droplets by Bader, C., Brooks, R., Ng, Y., Sorvina, A., Werrett, Melissa, Wright, Phillip, Anwer, A., Brooks, D., Stagni, S., Muzzioli, S., Silberstein, Morry, Skelton, B., Goldys, E., Plush, S., Shandala, T., Massi, Massimiliano

“…The biological behaviour in terms of cellular incubation and organelle specificity for two complexes of the type fac-[Re(CO)3(phen)L], where phen is 1,10-phenanthroline and L is either 3-pyridyltetrazolate or4-cyanophenyltetrazolate, are herein investigated. …”

Analysis of the Sam50 translocase of excavate organisms supports evolution of divergent organelles from a common endosymbiotic event by Kay, Christopher J., Lawler, Karen, Kerr, Ian D.

“…As these symbionts became organelles all these aspects were reduced – genomes have degenerated with the host nucleus now encoding the most of the remaining endosymbiont proteome, while the metabolic processes of the symbiont have been streamlined to the functions of the emerging organelle. …”

The lipidome and proteome of oil bodies from Helianthus annuus (common sunflower) by Furse, S., Liddell, S., Ortori, C., Williams, H., Neylon, Cameron, Scott, D., Barrett, D., Gray, D.

“…In this paper we report the molecular profiling, lipidome and proteome, of the plant organelle known as an oil body (OB). The OB is remarkable in that it is able to perform its biological role (storage of triglycerides) whilst resisting the physical stresses caused by changes during desiccation (dehydration) and germination (rehydration). …”

The role of the guanine nucleotide exchange factor Rab3GEP in the regulation of Rab27a by Sanzà, Paolo

“…In mammalian cells vesicle transport is an important process, many diseases are caused by defects of trafficking. Key elements for organelle trafficking are Rab proteins which regulate this system. …”

Investigating the role of proteins in melanosome transport by Kajana, Sivarasa

“…Any defectiveness or disruption of these proteins leads to several disorders such as Hermansky-Pudlak Syndrome (HPS), Chediak-Higashi Syndrome and Griscelli Syndrome which are caused due to defects in genes that control organelle biogenesis, organelle motility or cargo transport within cells. …”

Protein profiling of Candida albicans planktonic and biofilm cultures upon exposure to Aureobasidin / Komathy Munusamy by Komathy, Munusamy

“…A lower percentage of proteins annotated for organelle organization in the AbA-treated planktonic culture (18.1%) as compared to the dimethyl sulfoxide (DMSO)-treated planktonic culture (23.2%). …”

Redox Dichotomy in Cell Fate Decision: Evasive Mechanism or Achilles Heel? by Pervaiz, Shazib

“…This change in the redox set point triggers a host of cellular responses ranging from modifications in cellular macromolecules, organelle morphology and physiology, amplified cell-to-cell and intracellular signaling, and changes in genome, epigenome, and proteome. …”
