Mitotic cytosol inhibits invagination of coated pits in broken mitotic cells
نویسندگان
چکیده
Receptor-mediated endocytosis is inhibited during mitosis in mammalian cells and earlier work on A431 cells suggested that one of the sites inhibited was the invagination of coated pits (Pypaert, M., J. M. Lucocq, and G. Warren. 1987. Eur. J. Cell Biol. 45: 23-29). To explore this inhibition further, we have reproduced it in broken HeLa cells. Mitotic or interphase cells were broken by freeze-thawing in liquid nitrogen and warmed in the presence of mitotic or interphase cytosol. Using a morphological assay, we found invagination to be inhibited only when mitotic cells were incubated in mitotic cytosol. This inhibition was reversed by diluting the cytosol during the incubation. Reversal was sensitive to okadaic acid, a potent phosphatase inhibitor, showing that phosphorylation was involved in the inhibition of invagination. This was confirmed using purified cdc2 kinase which alone could partially substitute for mitotic cytosol.

Formation of coated vesicles from coated pits in broken A431 cells
Biochemical and morphological techniques were used to demonstrate the early steps in the endocytosis of transferrin in broken A431 cells. After binding 125I-transferrin, the cells were broken by scraping and then warmed. 125I-transferrin became inaccessible to exogenous anti-transferrin antibody providing a measure of the internalization process. Parallel morphological experiments using transfe...

Catharanthus roseus (L.) G.Don is a plant which produces anticancer and anti-mitotic indole alkaloids. Colchicine is an anti-mitotic drug. Anti-mitotic effects of Vinca herbacea Waldst. & Kit. indole alkaloids is unknown. The study were evaluated the antimitotic effect of alkaloids of V. herbacea, Catharanthus roseus andcolchicineon mitosis and microtubule arrangement of human blood cells. In t...
متن کاملClathrin exchange during clathrin-mediated endocytosis
During clathrin-mediated endocytosis, clathrin-coated pits invaginate to form clathrin-coated vesicles (CVs). Since clathrin-coated pits are planar structures, whereas CVs are spherical, there must be a structural rearrangement of clathrin as invagination occurs. This could occur through simple addition of clathrin triskelions to the edges of growing clathrin-coated pits with very little exchan...
متن کاملAcidification of the cytosol inhibits endocytosis from coated pits
Acidification of the cytosol of a number of different cell lines strongly reduced the endocytic uptake of transferrin and epidermal growth factor. The number of transferrin binding sites at the cell surface was increased in acidified cells. Electron microscopic studies showed that the number of coated pits at the cell surface was not reduced in cells with acidified cytosol. Experiments with tra...
متن کاملThe Role of Dynamin and Its Binding Partners in Coated Pit Invagination and Scission
Plasma membrane clathrin-coated vesicles form after the directed assembly of clathrin and the adaptor complex, AP2, from the cytosol onto the membrane. In addition to these structural components, several other proteins have been implicated in clathrin-coated vesicle formation. These include the large molecular weight GTPase, dynamin, and several Src homology 3 (SH3) domain-containing proteins w...
