100-kDa polypeptides in peripheral clathrin-coated vesicles are required for receptor-mediated endocytosis.

Abstract: The role of the 100-kDa polypeptide components of clathrin-coated vesicles in endocytosis was investigated by microinjection of specific monoclonal antibodies. Receptormediated uptake of transferrin and liposomes was quantitatively inhibited. These results show that the 100-kDa polypeptides are directly involved in localized clathrin assembly at the cell periphery and are markers for the endocytic pathway. This demonstrates an in situ function of these polypeptides and the protein complexes in which they are f… Show more

“…This interaction might potentiate receptor migration, association with coated pits, and targeting to endosomes. Such a function is supported by the observation that microinjection of an anti-a-adaptin monoclonal antibody into HeLa cells inhibits the down regulation of the transferrin receptor, resulting in the maintenance of the newly endocytosed receptors in a peripheral cytoplasmic distribution rather than a perinuclear distribution (5). Analysis of the role of a-adaptin in receptor internalization has been primarily limited to receptors, such as the low-density lipoprotein and transferrin receptors, which do not have intrinsic kinase activity.…”

“…Since the adaptors appear to recycle back through the soluble pool to the plasma membrane there must therefore be a second round ofuncoating, the site and mechanism of which has not yet been identified. However, adaptors have been detected on early endosomes (Chin et al, 1989) suggesting that either endocytic vesicles can fuse with early endosomes while still coated with adaptors or that only partial uncoating is necessary for fusion to occur.…”

“…Goat anti-clathrin heavy chain antibodies (Sigma-Aldrich, St. Louis, MO), anti-clathrin heavy chain monoclonal antibodies (mAbs) clone 23 (BD Biosciences, San Jose, CA), X22 (Chin et al, 1989), and rabbit polyclonal clathrin light-chain antibody 4878 (generously provided by S. Schmid, The Scripps Research Institute, La Jolla, CA) were used at dilutions of 1:100 -1:250. Anti-␣-adaptin (AP-2 subunit) mAbs (clone AP6; Affinity Bioreagents, Golden, CO) were used at a dilution of 1:200.…”
