- 3Study quantifies lipid sorting in clathrin-mediated endocytosis●Quantification of lipid sorting during clathrin-mediated endocytosis
A Nature publication reports the quantification of lipid sorting during clathrin-mediated endocytosis, the process by which cells internalise molecules via coated vesicles. The work provides a way to measure how specific lipids are sorted into vesicles, a long-standing question in cell biology. Researchers in the field are taking note of the study's quantitative approach to membrane trafficking.
