In the United States alone, the prevalence of nephrolithiasis is nearly twice the rate reported in the 1960s (2-5). The subsequent rise in surgical interventions for nephrolith...

Clathrin-associated adaptor protein complexes.

Membrane traffic among organelles of the secretory and endocytic pathways is mediated by small, transport vesicles that are classified according to the protein coat used in their formation and the cargo they contain (Bonifacino and Glick, 2004; Bonifacino and LippincottSchwartz, 2003). Clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) are involved in the transport between organelles, such as the trans-Golgi netw...
