Secretory granule biogenesisand the organization of membrane compartments via SNARE proteins in Giardia lamblia

Giardia lamblia trophozoites lack organelles typical of higher eukaryotes such asmitochondria, peroxisomes and compartments involved in intracellular protein traffickingand secretion, the Golgi apparatus and secretory granules. Nevertheless, the minimalmachinery for protein transport and sorting is...

In higher eukaryotes,soluble N-ethylmaleimide-sensitive factor attachment protein receptor (SNARE) of thevesicle-associated membrane protein (VAMP) and syntaxin proteins play an essential rolein these processes through the formation of complexes between proteins present on donorand target membranes.
