Abstract

The transformation of nascent phagosomes into forms capable of interacting with antimicrobial organelles of phagocytes, peroxisomes, depends on certain interactions between phagosomes and other vacuolar organelles. Phagosomes repeatedly interact with early and late endosomes through temporary contacts, which allows them to gain and lose complex sets of proteins. In addition, certain polypeptides are eliminated from phagosomes through recycling. New proteins enter phagosomes from the organelles of the biosynthetic pathway or are recruited from the cytoplasm. In addition, phagosomes receive proteins in the process of interaction with endosomes. The overall result of such transformation is acquiring new properties that make possible their interaction with peroxisomes.
