Control of membrane traffic: Photoswitchable inhibitors of protein-protein interactions were applied to photoregulate clathrin-mediated endocytosis (CME) in living cells. Traffic light (TL) peptides acting as "stop" and "go" signals for membrane traffic can be used to dissect the role of CME in receptor internalization and in cell growth, division, and differentiation.
光开关蛋白-蛋白相互作用抑制剂被应用于活体细胞中光调节网格蛋白介导的内吞作用(CME)。作为膜转运的“停止”和“开始”信号的交通信号灯(TL)肽可用于剖析 CME 在受体内化以及细胞生长、分裂和分化中的作用。
