AbstractDuring mitosis, eukaryotic cells cease anterograde trafficking from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) towards the Golgi. This cessation corresponds with the dispersal of the COPII transport protein, Sec24C, from juxtanuclear ER exit sites (ERES) into a diffusely cytosolic pool. Redistribution of Sec24 paralogs and other core COPII proteins may underlie the mitotic pause in secretion and may be required for the equal inheritance of endomembrane organelles and machinery by both daughter cells.

Physical and sports performance can benefit from various supplemental and nutritional intervention strategies. There is increasing interest in the ergogenic benefit of beta-alanine, which is the precursor to the histidine-containing dipeptide carnosine (β-alanyl-L-histidine), itself shown to have a key role in acid–base regulation during exercise, with other important health-linked roles (such as antioxidant and anti-glycation properties) also posited (Sale et al., 2013).
