Dynamin- and Rab5-Dependent Endocytosis of a Ca2+-Activated K+ Channel, KCa2.3 [PDF]
Regulation of the number of ion channels at the plasma membrane is a critical component of the physiological response. We recently demonstrated that the Ca2+-activated K+ channel, KCa2.3 is rapidly endocytosed and enters a Rab35- and EPI64C-dependent ...

Mutations in human dynamin block an intermediate stage in coated vesicle formation [PDF]
The role of human dynamin in receptor-mediated endocytosis was investigated by transient expression of GTP-binding domain mutants in mammalian cells. Using assays which detect intermediates in coated vesicle formation, the dynamin mutants were found to ...

Rapid endocytosis, which takes only a few seconds, is widely observed in secretory cells. Although it is more efficient in recycling vesicles than in slow clathrin-mediated endocytosis, its underlying mechanism, thought to be clathrin independent, is ...

Tyrosine decaging leads to substantial membrane trafficking during modulation of an inward rectifier potassium channel [PDF]
Tyrosine side chains participate in several distinct signaling pathways, including phosphorylation and membrane trafficking. A nonsense suppression procedure was used to incorporate a caged tyrosine residue in place of the natural tyrosine at position ...

Regulation of EGFR Endocytosis by CBL During Mitosis
The overactivation of epidermal growth factor (EGF) receptor (EGFR) is implicated in various cancers. Endocytosis plays an important role in EGFR-mediated cell signaling.

Changes in membrane lipids drive increased endocytosis following Fas ligation [PDF]
Once activated, some surface receptors promote membrane movements that open new portals of endocytosis, in part to facilitate the internalization of their activated complexes.

Different contributions of clathrin- and caveolae-mediated endocytosis of vascular endothelial cadherin to lipopolysaccharide-induced vascular hyperpermeability. [PDF]
Vascular hyperpermeability induced by lipopolysaccharide (LPS) is a common pathogenic process in cases of severe trauma and sepsis. Vascular endothelial cadherin (VE-cad) is a key regulatory molecule involved in this process, although the detailed ...

Ubiquitin-dependent endocytosis of NKG2D-DAP10 receptor complexes activates signaling and functions in human NK cells [PDF]
Cytotoxic lymphocytes share the presence of the activating receptor NK receptor group 2, member D (NKG2D) and the signaling-competent adaptor DNAX-activating protein 10 (DAP10), which together play an important role in antitumor immune surveillance ...

A neurotoxic phospholipase A2 impairs yeast amphiphysin activity and reduces endocytosis. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Presynaptically neurotoxic phospholipases A(2) inhibit synaptic vesicle recycling through endocytosis. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here we provide insight into the action of a presynaptically neurotoxic phospholipase A(2) ammodytoxin A (AtxA) on ...
