One of these mechanisms involves plasmids, small DNA molecules in bacterial cells, […] Written by Admin January 23, 2025January 23, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
Ca 2+ binding to Esyt modulates membrane contact site density in Drosophila photoreceptors Membrane contact sites (MCS) between the plasma membrane (PM) and endoplasmic reticulum (ER) regulate Ca2+ influx. However, the mechanisms by which cells modulate ER–PM MCS density are not understood, and the role of Ca2+, if any, in regulating these is unknown. We report that in Drosophila photoreceptors, MCS density is regulated by the Ca2+ channels, […] Written by Admin March 6, 2025March 6, 2025 Saving Bookmark this article Bookmarked
