Stochastic model of clathrin-coated pit assembly.
In recent years, fluorescence microscopy has enabled researchers to observe the dynamics of clathrin-coated pit (CCP) assembly in real time. The assembly dynamics of CCPs shows striking heterogeneity. Some CCPs are long-lived (productive CCPs); they bind cargo and grow in size to form clathrin-coated vesicles. In contrast, other CCPs (abortive CCPs) are relatively short-lived and disassemble we...
متن کاملNef-mediated Clathrin-coated Pit Formation
The sequence of events leading to clathrin-coated pit (CCP) nucleation on the cell surface and to the incorporation of receptors into these endocytic structures is still imperfectly understood. In particular, the question remains as to whether receptor tails initiate the assembly of the coat proteins or whether receptors migrate into preformed CCP. This question was approached through a dissect...
متن کاملCargo Regulates Clathrin-Coated Pit Dynamics
Clathrin-coated pits (CCPs) are generally considered a uniform population of endocytic machines containing mixed constitutive and regulated membrane cargo. Contrary to this view, we show that regulated endocytosis of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) occurs preferentially through a subset of CCPs. Significantly, GPCR-containing CCPs are also functionally distinct, as their surface residence t...
متن کاملMis-assembly of clathrin lattices on endosomes reveals a regulatory switch for coated pit formation
The clathrin-coated pit lattice is held onto the plasma membrane by an integral membrane protein that binds the clathrin AP-2 subunit with high affinity. In vitro studies have suggested that this protein controls the assembly of the pit because membrane bound AP-2 is required for lattice assembly. If so, the AP-2 binding site must be a resident protein of the coated pit and recycle with other r...
متن کاملSynaptotagmin regulation of coated pit assembly.
Synaptotagmins bind clathrin AP-2 with high affinity via their second C(2) domain, which indicates they are involved in coated pit function. We now report that expression of synaptotagmins lacking either the second C(2) domain or the entire cytoplasmic region potently inhibit endocytosis. Inhibition was dependent on two intramembrane cysteine residues that were found to be essential for synapto...
