Interpretation of the FGF8 morphogen gradient is regulated
by endocytic trafficking.

by endocytic changes: Sorting cancer by defective endocytosis genes.»
Not exact matches
Thus, transport of peptide — MHC II complexes
by DCs not only accomplishes transfer from late
endocytic compartments to the plasma membrane, but does so in a manner that selectively concentrates TCR ligands and costimulatory molecules for T cell contact.
The Loyola study is titled, «
Endocytic vesicle rupture is a conserved mechanism of cellular invasion
by amyloid proteins.»
However,
endocytic waves may be initiated
by clathrin through a positive feedback mechanism between clathrin and downstream proteins which includes actin regulating proteins as well as membrane proteins such as PIP3.
The work, led
by Assistant Professor Wu Min, showed how a major
endocytic pathway mediated
by the protein clathrin, was found to commence with periodic traveling waves of clathrin, which were coupled temporally and spatially to downstream cortical actin waves.
The feedback, which couples the initiation of
endocytic waves
by clathrin to cortical actin waves is analogous to a group of people walking on a wobbly bridge.
Using sensitive live cell imaging, the team noted that
endocytic waves initiated
by clathrin emerge in some cell populations.
Furthermore, the membrane microdomains induced
by BAR domains are expected to function as diffusion barriers, which may for example trap membrane - associated receptor and cargo molecules at the
endocytic bud.
Role of the
endocytic pathway in the counteraction of BST - 2
by human lentiviral pathogens.
ACAP1 promotes
endocytic recycling
by recognizing recycling sorting signals.
In this review, we first summarize these contributions
by extracellular determinants to the
endocytic process.
In collaboration with E. Tartour Group (Georges Pompidou European Hospital, Inserm), the
Endocytic Trafficking and Intracellular Delivery Group led
by L. Johannes (Inserm / CNRS / Institut Curie) discovered nasal anti-cancer vaccines would stimulate a population...
Thus, the
endocytic machinery appears to act as a «sensor gauge» capable of triggering diverse biological processes depending on the intensity of the stimulus received
by the cell.
Cell surface receptors can be endocytosed
by both clathrin - dependent and clathrin - independent mechanisms, but, as yet, there is no clear understanding of why alternative
endocytic routes exist or how receptors are committed to a particular route.
