Article Synopsis
- Membrane budding is critical for cell survival, transforming flat membranes into vesicles, with coat-proteins like clathrin identified as key players, but many non-coated budding mechanisms remain poorly understood.
- Research utilizing live neuroendocrine cells and protein modeling reveals that actin filaments and dynamin work together to shape the membrane, first forming a Λ-profile and then constricting it into vesicles.
- This discovery of how non-coated membrane budding operates expands our understanding of membrane dynamics, suggesting that the roles of dynamin and actin are more versatile and impactful across various cell types than previously believed.
