Title: Mechanisms of protein delivery to melanosomes in pigment cells. Author: Sitaram A, Marks MS. Journal: Physiology (Bethesda); 2012 Apr; 27(2):85-99. PubMed ID: 22505665. Abstract: Vertebrate pigment cells in the eye and skin are useful models for cell types that use specialized endosomal trafficking pathways to partition cargo proteins to unique lysosome-related organelles such as melanosomes. This review describes current models of protein trafficking required for melanosome biogenesis in mammalian melanocytes.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
