#endocytosis — Public Fediverse posts

Live and recent posts from across the Fediverse tagged #endocytosis, aggregated by home.social.

  1. How do #apicomplexans reorganize their #PlasmaMembrane (PM) while replicating inside host cells? This study shows that #Toxoplasma recycles its PM via Rab5b- & MyoF-dependent #endocytosis, linking PM reservoir formation to membrane homeostasis via the micropore @PLOSBiology plos.io/46tDxny

  2. In #CElegans, the protein FLWR-1 helps manage calcium levels and vesicle recycling at the neuromuscular junction, challenging old models of its role in #endocytosis.

  3. Organisms have evolved complex and sophisticated #DNA damage response (DDR) mechanisms. In a new #JIPB Brief Comms feature, Yang et al. report on their efforts to identify new DDR regulators in plants

  4. For #epithelial tissue homeostasis, cell elimination & proliferation must balance. @DaikiUmetsu &co show that faster cell removal is associated with switch from isolated to clustered #apoptosis, induced by ⬇️ #endocytosis & EGFR signaling #PLOSBiology plos.io/403rQ3Y

  5. #Clathrin-mediated #endocytosis (CME) is one of the main cellular trafficking processes, but how are CME sites initiated? @DavidGDrubin &co show that #yeast CALM/AP180 & FCHo1/2 adaptor proteins interact with Eps15 to promote CME initiation #PLOSBiology plos.io/4eCYlKA
