Clathrin-mediated endocytosis is a major endocytic route used by transferrin, growth-factor receptors and pathogenic viruses during infectious entry. Although clathrin-dependent uptake is the best ...

The paper S. Kaur et al., “An unmet actin requirement explains the mitotic inhibition of clathrin-mediated endocytosis,” eLife, 3:e00829, 2014. For decades, scientists observed clathrin-mediated ...

The process of clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) is driven by the collective effort of proteins that cause membrane invagination and those that cause membrane scission. Shimada et al.

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 ...
