Abstract: Many membrane proteins are taken up into the cell by the process of clathrin-mediated endocytosis — the proteins are pinched off in vesicles coated with the protein clathrin. A study using a fusion protein (green fluorescent protein combined with the clathrin light-chain) now indicates that formation of these coated pits may be coupled to events at the membrane skeleton, possibly through scaffold proteins.
