By contrast, the bulk of endocytosis is often viewed as a constitutive process that ensures the continuous recycling of membrane components. In a recent paper (Mol. Cell 7, 421–432; 2001 ...

Fcα/μR also mediated primary B lymphocyte endocytosis of IgM-coated Staphylococcus aureus. Thus, Fcα/μR is involved in the primary stages of the immune response to microbes. Figure 3 ...

Fats and other cellular materials reach the lysosome through three main pathways: endocytosis, phagocytosis, and autophagy. In endocytosis, the cell takes in materials from outside by wrapping ...

One key process in maintaining this equilibrium is endocytosis, the mechanism by which membrane components are internalised. Organisms have evolved various endocytic pathways, all relying on ...
