The Biology of Subcellular Nitric Oxide

Abstract

Engulfment of particles by endocytosis is one of the most ancient and evolutionarily conserved cellular processes in the eukaryotic cell (Biol Cell 101:709–721, 2009). Endocytosis starts with the recognition and binding of particles by cell-surface receptors; followed by budding of the cell membrane and the formation of an endosome which internalizes the bounded particles. Finally, the endosome undergoes fusion with lysosomes containing hydrolytic enzymes to degrade the engulfed cargo (Nat Rev Microbiol 2:820–832, 2004).
