Abstract

Clathrin-coated pits and vesicles were first described in detail by Roth and Porter (1, 2) in the mosquito oocyte, and their role in adsorptive endocytosis suggested. In the intervening twenty years, the molecular structure of the clathrin coat has been elucidated, and a number of functions for clathrin-coated structures have been proposed. Although the structure of the clathrin basketwork is now understood in some detail, the exact mechanism(s) of assembly and vesicle recognition are still largely unknown.
