Q

How do vesicles form?

A

Ligands bind at high affinity to specific surface receptors, which then associate with specific cytoplasmic proteins, including clathrin and adaptor proteins, and aggregate in membrane regions to form coated pits. Clathrin facilitates invagination of the pits, and another -peripheral membrane protein, dynamin, forms constricting loops around the developing neck of the pit, which cause the region to pinch off as a coated vesicle
