Abstract:
Endocytosis is a fine-tuned mechanism of cellular communication through which cells internalize molecules on the plasma membrane, such as receptors and their bound ligands. Through receptor clustering in endocytic pits, recruitment of active receptors to different endocytic routes and their trafficking towards different fates, endocytosis modulates cell signaling and ultimately leads to a variety of biological responses. Many studies have focused their attention on specialized endocytic mechanisms depending on the nature of the internalizing cargo and cellular context, distinct sets of coat proteins, endocytic adaptors and membrane lipids. Here, we review recent advances in our understanding of the principles underlying endocytic vesicle formation, integrating both biochemical and biophysical factors, with a particular focus on intrinsically disordered regions (IDRs) creating weakly interconnected protein networks assembled through liquid-liquid phase separation (LLPS) and driving membrane bending especially in clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME). We finally discuss how these properties impinge on receptor fate and signaling.
