Abstract excerpt
Dynamin, a 100-kDa GTPase, is one of the most-characterized membrane fission machineries catalyzing vesicle release from plasma membrane during endocytosis. The human genome encodes three dynamins: DNM1, DNM2 and DNM3, with high amino acid similarity but distinct expression patterns. Ever since the discoveries of dynamin mutations associated with human diseases in 2005, dynamin has become a paradigm for studying...
