Abstract excerpt
Receptor-mediated endocytosis of yolk precursors via clathrin-coated structures is the key mechanism underlying rapid chicken oocyte growth. In defining oocyte-specific components of clathrin-mediated events, we have to date identified oocyte-specific yolk transport receptors, but little is known about the oocytes' supporting endocytic machinery. Important proteins implicated in clathrin-mediated endocytosis and...
