Clathrin

Clathrin is the name of a protein. Clathrin proteins can either:

  • assemble into a cage structure on the cytosolic part of the cell membrane to form clathrin coated pits. These bud off during endocytosis, giving rise to clathrin coated vesicles.
  • form flat clathrin coats, where mono-ubiquitinated cargo is concentrated.
