The budding yeast endocytic pathway.
Recent live-cell imaging studies, coupled with powerful genetic, biochemical and pharmacological tests of function, have expanded our understanding of the molecular events that underlie clathrin/actin mediated-endocytosis in budding yeast. Many features of this pathway are evolutionarily conserved (Engqvist-Goldstein and Drubin, 2003; Kaksonen et al, 2006). Therefore, insights into the intricate molecular choreography of endocytic events in budding yeast will provide a basis for elucidating such mechanisms in more complex organisms. This poster depicts our current understanding of the dynamics of endocytosis in budding yeast.
