In eukaryotes, clathrin-coated vesicles (CCVs) facilitate the internalization of material from
the cell surface as well as the movement of cargo in post-Golgi trafficking pathways. This …

Clathrin polymerization and changes in plasma membrane architecture are necessary steps
in forming vesicles to internalize cargo during clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) …

Biomechanical forces, including vascular shear stress, cyclic stretching, and extracellular
matrix stiffness, which influence mechanosensitive channels in the plasma membrane …

Protein-mediated membrane fission has been analyzed both in bulk and at the single event
resolution. Studies on membrane fission in vitro using tethers have provided fundamental …

Africa swine fever (ASF) is a highly pathogenic contagion caused by African swine fever
virus (ASFV), which not only affects the development of domestic pig industry, but also …

Pollen tube polar growth is a key cellular process during plant fertilization and is regulated
by tip-focused exocytosis and endocytosis. However, the spatiotemporal dynamics and …

The nanoscale localizations, interactions, and conformations of endocytic proteins are key
regulators of clathrin-mediated endocytosis. Although super-resolution microscopy has …

The COVID-19 pandemic that started in 2019 has left in its wake colossal devastation. While
several countries continue to struggle with the second, third, and even the fourth waves of …

Clathrin is a key protein for viruses to enter host cells. Previous studies often use clathrin
inhibitors or gene knockdown technology to partially inhibit the function of clathrin, but …

Beyond the essential role that DNA hybridization serves in biological processes, it has also
been demonstrated to be a powerful tool that enables many biological investigations and …
