Abstract excerpt
Dynamin belongs to the large GTPase superfamily, and mediates the fission of vesicles during endocytosis. Dynamin molecules are recruited to the neck of budding vesicles to assemble into a helical collar and to constrict the underlying membrane. Two helical forms were observed: the one-start helix in the constricted state and the two-start helix in the super-constricted state. Here we report the cryoEM structure...
