Endocytosis |
Endocytosis
is the process by which small particle, molecules and liquids are taken
into cells. This for the most part accomplished by
receptor-mediated endocytosis involving clathrin coated pits and
vesicles. A huge number of proteins have been implicated in this
multi-step process (Table 1), large amongst them being actin (Ayscough
2000; Lamaze
et al, 1997;
Schafer 2002), and
microtubules (Maples
et al, 1997).

A motor protein that
unlike other myosins moves toward the pointed end of
microfilaments. This orientation is expected to be consistent
with a requirement to move the vesicle away from the membrane after
scission. |
