Ejectosome

Index Ejectosome

An ejectosome is a cellular organelle responsible for ejecting their contents from the cell. [1]

10 relations: Actin, Cryptomonad, Cytoskeleton, Extrusome, Intracellular, Lysis, Mycobacterium tuberculosis, Organelle, Pathogen, Secretion.

Actin

Actin is a family of globular multi-functional proteins that form microfilaments.

Cryptomonad

The cryptomonads (or cryptophytes) are a group of algae, most of which have plastids.

Cytoskeleton

A cytoskeleton is present in all cells of all domains of life (archaea, bacteria, eukaryotes).

Extrusome

Extrusomes are membrane-bound structures in some eukaryotes which, under certain conditions, discharge their contents outside the cell.

Intracellular

In cell biology, molecular biology and related fields, the word intracellular means "inside the cell".

Lysis

Lysis (Greek λύσις lýsis, "a loosing" from λύειν lýein, "to unbind") refers to the breaking down of the membrane of a cell, often by viral, enzymic, or osmotic (that is, "lytic") mechanisms that compromise its integrity.

Mycobacterium tuberculosis

Mycobacterium tuberculosis is a species of pathogenic bacteria in the family Mycobacteriaceae and the causative agent of tuberculosis.

Organelle

In cell biology, an organelle is a specialized subunit within a cell that has a specific function, in which their function is vital for the cell to live.

Pathogen

In biology, a pathogen (πάθος pathos "suffering, passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") or a '''germ''' in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease; the term came into use in the 1880s.

Secretion

Secretion is the movement of material from one point to another, e.g. secreted chemical substance from a cell or gland.
