Abstract:
Qualitative and quantitative data obtained on micro and nanovesicle enriched fractions isolated from four citrus species, C. sinensis, C. limon, C. paradisi and C. aurantium are presented. It includes physiochemical characterization by transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and dynamic laser scattering (DLS); and molecular characterization of the biocargo of citrus vesicles by quantitative label-free proteomics. Vesicular transport related proteins of C. sinensis were predicted by (i) finding orthologues based on previously described vesicular transport proteins and (ii) GO term enrichment analysis. Based on the protein content different types of intra and intercellular vesicles were dissected and the distribution of different Enzyme classes (ECs) were determined. This data article is related to "Protein biocargo of citrus fruit-derived vesicles reveals heterogeneous transport and extracellular vesicle populations" (Pocsfalvi et al., 2018).

When acidic chyme from the stomach enters the duodenum, it triggers the release of secretin, a hormone that prompts pancreatic juice secretion. After a fatty meal, cholecystokinin, another hormone, stimulates gallbladder contraction and enhances enzyme-rich...
Conjugated Proteins
Nucleoproteins are protein complexes that contain nucleic acids, categorized as deoxyribonucleoproteins (DNPs) or ribonucleoproteins (RNPs) respectively. The nucleosome is a typical example of a DNP where nuclear DNA is associated with histone proteins. The major antigen for the Covid-19 virus SARS-CoV is an RNP that is critical...

Fluorescent recovery after photobleaching (FRAP) is a fluorescent-protein-based detection technique used to quantify protein movement rates within the cell. This method exposes a small portion of the cell to an intense laser beam. The laser beam causes permanent photobleaching of the fluorophore-tagged proteins in the exposed region. As the bleached...
