Sentences with word «invagination»

The Johannes group has made two major contributions in this context: the discovery of a membrane trafficking interface between early endosomes and the Golgi apparatus, and the demonstration that dynamic protein - induced glycosphingolipid reorganization acts as a driving force for membrane invagination in clathrin - independent endocytosis.

Our knowledge concerning epistatic relationships between these genes implies the existence of a poorly understood biochemical maintenance of twist expression during mesoderm invagination by the snail gene.

Mesoderm invagination, the first morphogenetic movement of gastrulation in the early Drososphila embryo, is controlled by the expression of the twist and snail genes.

In striated muscle, the plasma membrane forms tubular invaginations (transverse tubules or T - tubules) that function in depolarization - contraction coupling.

The phase of gastrulation, in which the germ layers form through invagination of the outermost cell layer, is the first great cell migration phase in the development of vertebrates.

An isoform of amphiphysin 2 concentrated at T - tubules induced tubular plasma membrane invaginations when expressed in nonmuscle cells.

Bräuchle suggests that the tracks are tube - shaped invaginations of the nuclear membrane, recently discovered structures never before known to ferry viruses.

They are surrounded by two membranes (each a phospholipid bi-layer), the inner of which is folded into invaginations called cristae, where aerobic respiration takes place.

In addition, it may also play a role in initiating membrane invagination via the BAR domain.

Drosophila imaginal discs, simple epithelial invaginations that grow one thousand fold in mass and cell number, are probably one of the best model systems to analyze at the genetic and molecular level the control of size in a growing epithelium.

Not all cases of vulvar invagination are related to the age at which your pet was spayed.

Image shows strong immunopositivity at the membranes of cardiomyocytes (invaginations of immunostaining show points of branching of each myocyte).

The latest research from the UCSB team shows that specialized cells in the squid skin called iridocytes contain deep pleats or invaginations of the cell membrane extending deep into the body of the cell.

CME is initiated by the binding of a ligand to a receptor, followed by membrane invagination, coating of the invagination by the triskelion shaped protein clathrin, and budding off of the clathrin coated vesicle.

In the light of a review detailing the role of these genes in the cell shape changes leading to invagination, and of recent findings showing the expression of twist as mechanically sensitive, we suggest that the expression of twist in the mesoderm could alternatively be maintained by mechanical strains developed during mesoderm invagination.

Both conditions are characterized by increased proximity of the cranial cervical spine to the base of the skull [25]; however a defining characteristic of human basilar invagination is invagination of the odontoid process of the axis through or towards the foramen magnum, often with compression of the neural tissue by the dens [25].
