Endocytosis and exocytosis are the processes by which cells move materials into or out of the cell that are too large to directly pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Large molecules, ...

Endocytosis is a cellular process whereby molecules that cannot pass through a cell membrane passively are actively transported from the extracellular environment into the intracellular environment.

In clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the cell membrane invaginates to take up metabolites, hormones, and proteins from the cell surface into intracellular vesicles. Cells employ several pathways for ...

Dynamin is a protein that plays a central role in endocytosis—the process where cells internalize substances by wrapping them ...

Researchers have come up with a clever new way of freezing brain cells just as they fire out a signal, meaning processes that ...

Construction of a near-term predictive model for irAEs induced by PD-1 inhibitors. This is an ASCO Meeting Abstract from the 2022 ASCO Annual Meeting I. This abstract does not include a full text ...

Clogged endosomal traffic is a feature of Alzheimer’s and, according to a paper in the October 6 Cell Reports, the two AD risk genes ApoE4 and PICALM normally toggle its ebb and flow. Researchers led ...

Approximately 15% of the proteins produced in our bodies are destined for the surface of our cells. Remarkably, these surface proteins, along with the lipids forming the membrane, undergo rapid ...
