Published in 2017 at "Molecular Neurobiology"

DOI: 10.1007/s12035-017-0857-z

Abstract: The exocyst, an octameric protein complex consisting of Exoc1 through Exoc8, was first determined to regulate exocytosis by targeting vesicles to the plasma membrane in yeast to mice. In addition to this fundamental role, the… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2208947119

Abstract: The phosphoinositide-3 kinase (PI-3K)/AKT cell survival pathway is an important pathway activated by EGFR signaling. Here we show, that in addition to previously described critical components of this pathway, i.e., the docking protein Gab1, the… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences of the United States of America"

DOI: 10.1073/pnas.2519318122

Abstract: Significance The exocyst is a conserved octameric complex essential for tethering secretory vesicles to the plasma membrane in eukaryotic cells. Despite its central role, the mechanism of exocyst assembly and its coordination with cargo trafficking… read more here.

Published in 2025 at "Molecular biology of the cell"

DOI: 10.1091/mbc.e25-03-0146

Abstract: The exocyst complex is crucial for vesicles secretion. In Neurospora crassa, apical growth is determined by the Spitzenkörper (SPK), where secretory vesicles accumulate before fusing with the plasma membrane (PM). Exocyst subunits SEC-3, -5, -6,… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Plant Physiology"

DOI: 10.1093/plphys/kiac019

Abstract: Abstract The exocyst is the main plasma membrane vesicle-tethering complex in eukaryotes and is composed of eight different subunits. Yet, in plant genomes, many subunits display multiple copies, thought to reflect evolution of complex subtypes… read more here.

Published in 2024 at "eLife"

DOI: 10.1101/2023.08.31.555734

Abstract: Eukaryotic cells depend on exocytosis to direct intracellularly synthesized material towards the extracellular space or the plasma membrane, so exocytosis constitutes a basic function for cellular homeostasis and communication between cells. The secretory pathway includes… read more here.

Published in 2022 at "Journal for Immunotherapy of Cancer"

DOI: 10.1136/jitc-2022-004820

Abstract: Background Neutrophils kill antibody-opsonized tumor cells using trogocytosis, a unique mechanism of destruction of the target plasma. This previously unknown cytotoxic process of neutrophils is dependent on antibody opsonization, Fcγ receptors and CD11b/CD18 integrins. Here,… read more here.
