▪ Abstract Internalization of receptors, lipids, pathogens, and other cargo at the plasma
membrane involves several different pathways and requires coordinated interactions …

The regulated assembly of actin filament networks is a crucial part of endocytosis, with
crucial temporal and spatial relationships between proteins of the endocytic and actin …

Increasing evidence from a variety of cell types has highlighted the importance of the actin
cytoskeleton during endocytosis. No longer is actin viewed as a passive barrier that must be …

The actin cytoskeleton has long been believed to play a role in endocytosis, but its actual
function in this process has been unclear. Now, three proteins that promote actin nucleation …

The endocytosis process is of critical importance for a variety of cellular life functions.
Vesicle formation during receptor-mediated endocytosis involves a complex protein …

Endocytosis includes a number of processes by which cells internalize segments of their
plasma membrane, enclosing a wide variety of material from outside the cell. Endocytosis …

Genetic analysis of endocytosis in yeast early pointed to the essential role of actin in the
uptake step. Efforts to identify the machinery involved demonstrated the important …

Endocytosis is a fundamental eukaryotic process required for remodelling plasma-
membrane lipids and protein to ensure appropriate membrane composition. Increasing …

Endocytosis is characterized by movement and precisely controlled changes in membrane
geometry during vesicle formation. Recent developments in live-cell imaging have enabled …

In this review we describe the potential roles of the actin cytoskeleton in receptor-mediated
endocytosis in mammalian cells and summarize the efforts of recent years in establishing a …
