ANAT 565 Diseases-Membrane Trafficking (3 credits)

Offered by: Anatomy and Cell Biology (Faculty of Science)

Overview

Anatomy & Cell Biology : This course will examine how research into diseases has played a key role in unraveling the intricate molecular mechanisms controlling membrane trafficking in mammalian cells. Membrane trafficking disorders fall into two groups those arising from a) membrane-associated or b) cytoskeletal defect. Topics include a) mechanisms of endosomal maturation, lysosomal storage disorders and rab protein-mediated vesicular trafficking and b) rho GTPase and cytoskeletal binding protein mediated trafficking associated with neurological diseases and cancer.

Terms: Winter 2025

Instructors: Presley, John; Lefrancois, Stephane; Lamarche, Nathalie; Pshezhetsky, Alexei; Kiss, Robert (Winter)
