Catabolism of lysosome-related organelles in color-changing spiders supports intracellular turnover of pigments

F. Figon, I. Hurbain, X. Heiligenstein, S. Trepout, K. Medjoubi, A. Somogyi, C. Delevoye, G. Raposo, J. Casas

This study examines pigment organelle catabolism in crab spiders, showing they belong to the LRO family and undergo intracellular degradation without cell death or secretion.
