CRC 1348 B10 - Spatiotemporal regulation of secretory lysosome trafficking controls epithelial tube fusion
Basic data for this project
Type of project: Subproject in DFG-joint project hosted at University of Münster
Duration at the University of Münster: 01/01/2018 - 31/12/2021 | 1st Funding period
Description
This proposal investigates the mechanism of luminal plasma membrane fusion using a combination of genetic, live imaging, and biophysical approaches. We will focus on the role of secretory lysosomes (SLs), in particular addressing how they deliver membrane material to specific cellular interfaces in tracheal fusion cells. We will investigate the formation, the dynamic behavior, and the regulation of SLs by Ca2+ signaling.
