vacuole

The plant's garbage collectors collect waste from cells and transport it to a kind of recycling station in the plant called a vacuole.

The detachment of the protrusion from the cell membrane results in the formation of a vacuole within the neighboring cell.

This mechanism is well known in roots of cereals, where cadmium is retained in the vacuoles and bound to thiol-containing molecules.

With this forceful entry, the pathogens are diverted into vacuoles that lack the ability to break down these infiltrators.

So Burnetti looked instead for rhodopsin already known to exist in vacuoles.
