Journal ArticleDOI

The multiple faces of caveolae

TL;DR: The apparently diverse functions of caveolae, including mechanosensing and lipid regulation, might be linked to their ability to respond to plasma membrane changes, a property that is dependent on their specialized lipid composition and biophysical properties.
Journal ArticleDOI

Rab11 regulates recycling through the pericentriolar recycling endosome.

TL;DR: A novel role for rab11 in controlling traffic through the recycling endosome is suggested after functional studies showed that the early steps of uptake and recycling for transferrin were not affected by overexpression of rab11 proteins.
Journal ArticleDOI

The small GTPase rab5 functions as a regulatory factor in the early endocytic pathway.

TL;DR: It is concluded that rab5 is a rate-limiting component of the machinery regulating the kinetics of membrane traffic in the early endocytic pathway.
Journal ArticleDOI

Kidney organoids from human iPS cells contain multiple lineages and model human nephrogenesis

TL;DR: The developmental mechanism regulating the preferential induction of collecting duct versus kidney mesenchyme progenitors is identified and kidney organoids that contain nephrons associated with a collecting duct network surrounded by renal interstitium and endothelial cells are generated.
Journal ArticleDOI

Localization of low molecular weight GTP binding proteins to exocytic and endocytic compartments.

TL;DR: Findings provide evidence that members of the YPT1/SEC4 subfamily of GTP binding proteins are localized to specific exocytic and endocytic subcompartments in mammalian cells.
