Vesicles

The big problem with live originating in lipid vesicles is that they are impermeable and would thus need channels that could not have evolved in an abiotic environment (i.e. a classical irredcuible complex system which is abviously contradictory to gradual evolution). ❋ Unknown (2006)

The chemical transmitter dopamine is formed from the precursors tyrosine and L-dopa and is stored in vesicles in the nerve endings. ❋ Unknown (2000)

They are stored in vesicles enclosed by a membrane. ❋ Unknown (1991)

It depends on the region, so that in an anterior area, brain with optic and aural vesicles is induced, while further back, notochord and pronephric ducts are induced, and further back still, little tails. ❋ Unknown (1965)

They also push dopamine out of the little sacs, called vesicles, where neurons store it. ❋ Unknown (2007)

Citrus Anatomy Each segment of a citrus fruit is a compartment of the ovary, and is stuffed with small, elongated bags called vesicles, each of which contains many individual microscopic juice cells that fill with water and dissolved substances as the fruit develops. ❋ Harold McGee (2004)

"An enzyme, luciferase, and a substrate, luciferin, are held in tiny bags called vesicles inside the cell," he said. ❋ By C. CLAIBORNE RAY (2011)

More than 90% of the ejaculatory fluid is produced by the prostate gland and seminal vesicles, which is why men who have had a vasectomy can still ejaculate normally. ❋ Amp;34;Nutrition (2010)

At the time, what scientists mainly knew about the presynaptic neuron is that calcium ions stimulate the release of neurotransmitters from membrane-bound sacs called vesicles into the synapse, in a process that takes less than a millisecond. ❋ Unknown (2010)

In the 1980s, Dr. Südhof and Dr. Scheller decoded the genes that control the functioning of tiny nerve cell bundles called vesicles, which send neurotransmitters across the synapses between cells. ❋ Unknown (2010)

In the bustling economy of the cell, little bubbles called vesicles serve as container ships, ferrying cargo to and from the port - the cell membrane. ❋ Unknown (2009)

As part of the process of transmission of information from one neuron to another, tiny bubbles called vesicles transport chemicals called neurotransmitters to the neuron's tip called the synapse. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Cells use a secretory apparatus all over the place; we package up hormones or enzymes or other chemicals into small balloons of membrane called vesicles, and we can export them to the outside of the cell by simply fusing the vesicle with the cell membrane. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Anyway, do not fear the package, fear the contents, liposomes, sometimes referred to as vesicles are actually made up of the same stuff as your cell walls and will just attach to a cell wall and join it, and dump their contents into the cell. ❋ Unknown (2008)

The duo say this work provides a launching pad for building a nanowire-based atomic force microscopes that could be used to study biological cells and model cellular components such as vesicles or bilayers. ❋ Unknown (2010)
