Document Summary

Types of endocytosis: receptor mediated: uptake receptors and any material bound to them, phagocytosis: uptake of particulate matter or large particles (cell eating), pinocytosis: uptake of solutes (cell drinking). *autophagy (process of organelle turnover) is not a type of endocytosis but it does use a similar mechanism of phagocytosis. Receptor mediated: catherin coat forms on the plasma membrane, coated pit (membrane curves) trapping particles, formation of coated vesicle still attached to the plasma membrane, detachment from the plasma membrane. *a complex of proteins composed of 3 heavy and light chains (triskelion shape) * these assemble together to form a soccer ball-shaped coated vesicle. * the clathrin coated vesicle is formed with the help of the ap2 complex. *gtp is involved in the process of detachment; with the help of dynamin (a protein). *if gtp(gama)s (non-hydrolysable) attaches the vesicle will not be able to detach only form new rings.
