Evolutionarily diverged on-switch for actin assembly in fungal endocytosis

Juliette Sebellin, Fabina Binth Kandiyoth, Bagyashree VT…·Marko Kaksonen

The paper identifies Ldb17 as the on-switch for endocytic actin assembly in S. cerevisiae, revealing its complex regulation by Sla1 and evolutionary divergence from Dip1 in S. pombe.
