... transmitter classes, establishing a mechanism for scaling co-transmission. Synaptic transmission Secretory granules Tyrosine phosphatase Vesicular transport Neuropeptide vesicles Small-molecule and neuropeptide transmitters also differ in their vesicular packaging. Neuropeptides are synthesized...

... and might therefore be associated with the secretory granules. The endoplasmic reticulum is predominantly basal, but thin extensions penetrate into the granular area and cytosolic Ca 2+ signals probably initiate at sites where endoplasmic reticulum elements and granules come close together. We also...

... to membranes, and few direct binding partners have been identified. In yeast, Gea2p has been implicated in trafficking through the Golgi apparatus and in maintaining Golgi structure. A major function of the Golgi apparatus is the packaging of cargo into secretory granules or vesicles. This process occurs...

... in the functioning of several LROs ( Stinchcombe et al., 2001 ; Griffiths, 2002 ; Seabra et al., 2002 ) as well as secretory granules ( Fukuda et al., 2002 ; Yi et al., 2002 ; Zhao et al., 2002 ). Our experiments with HUVECs show that a minor pericentriolar population of WPBs is Rab27a negative, whereas...
