Vesicles in a sentence

In addition, Type I synapses have round synaptic vesicles, whereas the vesicles of type II synapses are flattened.

Pinocytosis is the same process, except the substances being ingested are in the fluid form. citation Vesicles main Vesicles are small membrane-enclosed transport units that can transfer molecules between different compartments.

Secretory vesicles Secretory vesicles contain materials that are to be excreted from the cell.

The enzymes are imported from the Golgi apparatus in small vesicles, which fuse with larger acidic vesicles.

The protein skin is permeable to gasses but not water, keeping the vesicles from flooding. citation Matrix vesicles are located within the extracellular space, or matrix.

The small vesicles sometimes observed may serve as transport vesicles to shuttle stuff between the thylakoids and intermembrane space.

Enrollment is complete in the Phase 2 portion of EDP2939-101, the first study of extracellular vesicles in moderate psoriasis.

The new method allows the researchers to tweak the size and composition of the different vesicles so that various biochemical reactions can take place inside them without influencing one another—like in the different compartments of a cell.

Samples from the 1973 drillhole showed that vesicles, or small holes in the rock, have been partially filled by minerals.

The team discovered that tiny vesicles, which are secreted by the adult stem cells, have a remarkable ability to home in on the sites of tumours.

This results in a local darkening of MRI images where the gas vesicles are present.

After synthesis, hemicelluloses are transported to the plasma membrane via Golgi vesicles.

Afterward, inside the presynaptic terminal, a new set of vesicles are moved into position next to the membrane, ready to be released when the next action potential arrives.

Again, the plasticity can alter the number of vesicles or their replenishment rate or the relationship between calcium and vesicle release.

Alternatively, drugs can prevent neurotransmitter storage in synaptic vesicles by causing the synaptic vesicle membranes to leak.

Besides the plasma membrane the majority of prokaryotes lack membrane-bound organelles as found in eukaryotes, but they may assemble proteins onto various types of inclusions such as gas vesicles and storage granules.

Calcium causes synaptic vesicles filled with neurotransmitter molecules to fuse with the membrane, releasing their contents into the synaptic cleft.

Capturing cargo molecules The assembly of vesicles requires numerous coats to surround and bind to the proteins being transported; these bind to the coat vesicle.

Clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) are found in virtually all cells and form domains of the plasma membrane termed clathrin-coated pits.

Coated pits and vesicles were first seen in thin sections of tissue in the electron microscope by Matt Lions and Parker George.
