By contrast, the bulk of endocytosis is often viewed as a constitutive process that ensures the continuous recycling of membrane components. In a recent paper (Mol. Cell 7, 421–432; 2001 ...

Cells take up solid particles using a process called endocytosis. How did scientists use viruses to learn about endocytic functions in cells? Aa Aa Aa Viruses are the smallest microorganisms in ...

This graphic illustrates paracrine adhesion signaling on small extracellular vesicles, which secretes a protein called galectin-3, which promotes endocytosis so the vesicle can be absorbed into the ...

In order to do this, cells have to use certain methods of transport, and one of them is endocytosis. The larger the molecule, ...

In our lab, we focus on clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the predominant route for membrane internalisation in most cells. In addition to its role in endocytosis, the clathrin machinery also forms ...
