Yan and co-workers follow the localization of various membrane proteins upon blocking clathrin- and adaptor protein-mediated membrane trafficking, and reveal that blocking endocytosis reduces exocytosis (and vice-versa).  https://doi.org/10.1093/plcell/koab180  By Xu Yan, Yutong Wang, Dana A. Dahhan,…
