Taking apart the endocytic machinery

نویسنده

چکیده

The formation of clathrin-coated endocytic vesicles is driven by a complex and highly dynamic molecular machinery. In this issue, Idrissi et al. (Idrissi, F.-Z., H. Grötsch, I.M. Fernández-Golbano, C. Presciatto-Baschong, H. Riezman, and M.-I. Geli. 2008. J. Cell Biol. 180:1219-1232) reveal some of the secrets of this machinery by analyzing the localizations of nine endocytic proteins during vesicle budding in yeast using quantitative immunoelectron microscopy.

The endocytic machinery in nerve terminals surrounds sites of exocytosis

In most models of endocytosis, the endocytic machinery is recruited from the cytoplasm by cytoplasmic tails of the plasma membrane proteins that are to be internalized. This does not appear to be true at synapses where the endocytic machinery required for synaptic vesicle recycling is localized to membrane-associated 'hot spots' [1] [2]. In Drosophila neuromuscular junctions, the multi-domain p...

RNAi-mediated Hip1R silencing results in stable association between the endocytic machinery and the actin assembly machinery.

Actin filaments transiently associate with the endocytic machinery during clathrin-coated vesicle formation. Although several proteins that might mediate or regulate this association have been identified, in vivo demonstration of such an activity has not been achieved. Huntingtin interacting protein 1R (Hip1R) is a candidate cytoskeletal-endocytic linker or regulator because it binds to clathri...

Cortical Patches on the Move

Endocytosis is the primary means by which eukaryotic cells internalize materials from the environment. However, while many components of the endocytic machinery are known, the timing of molecular events leading to endocytosis remains undefined. In this issue of Cell, Kaksonen et al. use real-time microscopy to define the temporal assembly of components of the endocytic machinery in the yeast S....

Visualizing the functional architecture of the endocytic machinery

Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is an essential process that forms vesicles from the plasma membrane. Although most of the protein components of the endocytic protein machinery have been thoroughly characterized, their organization at the endocytic site is poorly understood. We developed a fluorescence microscopy method to track the average positions of yeast endocytic proteins in relation to eac...
