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 ...

A Doubleheader in Endocytosis [PDF]
Synaptojanin1 degrades the signaling lipid phosphatidylinositol-4,5-bisphosphate and facilitates compensatory endocytosis, clathrin-coat disassembly, and vesicle reavailability at active synapses. In this issue of Neuron, Mani et al. provide new information about the separate roles of synaptojanin's two phosphatase domains and its interactions with ...

Endocytosis entails selective packaging of cell-surface proteins, such as receptors for cytokines and adhesion components, in cytoplasmic vesicles (endosomes). The series of sorting events that determines the fate of internalized proteins, either degradation in lysosomes or recycling back to the plasma membrane, relies on intrinsic sequence motifs ...

Exocytosis and Endocytosis [PDF]
Exocytosis is a general term used to denote vesicle fusion at the plasma membrane, and it is the final step in the secretory pathway that typically begins in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), passes through the Golgi apparatus, and ends at the outside of the cell.

Two important new reports identify endocytosis of EphB-ephrinB complexes as a mechanism for switching between cell-cell adhesion and repulsion following plasma membrane contact. Together with the previously described shedding of ephrinA following EphA engagement, these findings resolve the paradox of how an adhesive receptor-ligand interaction ...

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 ...

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 ...

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 ...

Endocytosis regulates many important and diverse processes in eukaryotic life. EH domain containing proteins function as regulators of endocytosis through protein-protein interactions. Several interactors of mammalian EHDs were identified, including clathrin machinery components.
