H+-Translocating ATPase and Other Membrane Enzymes Involved in the Accumulation and Storage of Biological Amines in Chromaffin Granules

  • Chapter

Abstract

Within the adrenal medulla, catecholamines accumulate into and are stored within a highly specialized subcellular organelle, the chromaffin granule. Since their isolation almost 30 years ago, an interdisciplinary approach from pharmacologists, transport and cellular physiologists, electron microscopists, and anatomists has helped to delineate the salient aspects of the structure, composition, and function of these granules. One of the reasons for such profound interest is that the adrenal chromaffin granule has a common embryologic origin with the adrenergic neurotransmitter granules of the central and peripheral nervous system, suggesting that the two amine storage organelles may have functional properties in common.
