Mechanisms for intracellular retention of proteins are induced during adipocytic differentiation of 3T3-L1 cells. To investigate the potential role of clathrin lattices in these retention processes, ...

A cytosolic uncoating ATPase (an enzyme that dissociates clathrin from clathrin-coated vesicles in the presence of ATP) was isolated from developing pea (Pisum sativum L.) cotyledons using ...

Cells have a clever way called clathrin-mediated endocytosis to transport cargos like growth factors across the cell membrane and into the cell. Researchers used a sophisticated fluorescence ...

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is an essential cellular process that mediates the internalisation of diverse plasma membrane components and extracellular cargo. This mechanism relies on the ...

Florida State University researchers have new insight into the tiny packages that cells use to move molecules, a structure that is key to cellular metabolism, drug delivery and more. Their research ...

Most cells in the body send out little messengers called extracellular vesicles that carry proteins, lipids, and other bioactive molecules to other cells, playing an important role in intercellular ...

Endocytosis is a cellular process whereby molecules that cannot pass through a cell membrane passively are actively transported from the extracellular environment into the intracellular environment.

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. – Cells have a clever way to transport cargos like growth factors across the cell membrane and into the cell. It is called clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Molecules of the protein ...
