Cells take up solid particles using a process called endocytosis. How did scientists use viruses to learn about endocytic functions in cells? Aa Aa Aa Viruses are the smallest microorganisms in ...

Eps15 immunoprecipitates with a number of endocytic proteins. The authors studied the subcellular localization of Eps15 at neuromuscular junctions (NMJs), as these synapses are easily accessible ...

"Our group recently published a study showing that reduced endocytic activity can stimulate certain molecular events that result in LEC apoptosis," says Kevin Yuswan, lead author of the study.

Higher organisms have evolved a plethora of endocytic pathways with unique characteristics. Nonetheless, one common feature of all types of endocytosis is the use of actin-generated forces to aid ...
