We review the mechanisms responsible for amino acid homeostasis in Saccharomyces
cerevisiae and other fungi. Amino acid homeostasis is essential for cell growth and survival …

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis in the budding yeast Saccharomyces cerevisiae involves the
ordered recruitment, activity and disassembly of nearly 60 proteins at distinct sites on the …

Endocytosis, like many dynamic cellular processes, requires precise temporal and spatial
orchestration of complex protein machinery to mediate membrane budding. To understand …

The ability of photosystem (PS) II to catalyze the light-driven oxidation of water comes along
with its vulnerability to oxidative damage, in particular of the D1 core subunit …

Legumes and a few other plant species can establish a symbiotic relationship with nitrogen-
fixing rhizobia, which enables them to survive in a nitrogen-deficient environment. During …

The existence of specialized microdomains in plasma membranes, postulated for almost 25
years, has been popularized by the concept of lipid or membrane rafts. The idea that …

The fungal plasma membrane is organized into specialized domains that vary in size,
stability, and composition. Membrane compartment of Can1 (MCC)/eisosome domains that …

The application of fluorescence and electron microscopy to the same specimen allows the
study of dynamic and rare cellular events at ultrastructural detail. Here, we present a …

The plasma membrane (PM) performs a plethora of physiological processes, the
coordination of which requires spatial and temporal organization into specialized domains of …

The eukaryotic plasma membrane is compartmentalized into domains enriched in specific
lipids and proteins. However, our understanding of the molecular bases and biological roles …
