Urinary Exosome Protein Database
This database of urinary exosome proteins is based on published protein mass spectrometry data from the NHLBI Laboratory of Kidney and Electrolyte Metabolism. All data are from urinary exosomes isolated from healthy human volunteers. Figure on the right illustrates mechanism of exosome formation and excretion. In the first step of the process, apical membrane proteins undergo endocytosis. Second, the endosome is targeted to the multivesicular body (MVB). The signal that marks plasma membrane proteins for incorporation into MVB is mono-ubiquitination. In the third step, the endosome fuses with the MVB. Consequently, the apical plasma membrane proteins are segregated in the MVB outer membranes and internalized by membrane invagination. Finally, the outer membrane of the MVB fuses with the apical plasma membrane releasing its internal vesicles, called ‘exosomes’, in the urinary space. Exosomes contain both membrane and cytosolic proteins.
