Notch receptors are clustered and trans-endocytosed by Delta ligand cells. Confocal micrograph of a Delta expressing cell (left) interacting with a Notch expressing cell (right). Following interaction with Delta (blue), cell surface Notch (yellow) is clustered at cell-cell interfaces. Notch extracellular domain is detected within Delta cells (green) indicative of trans-endocytosis. Endocytosis of ligand while bound to Notch may produce a force sufficient to pull Notch apart and activate signaling.

Movement of plasma membrane associated clathrin spots along the microtubule cytoskeleton
Joshua Z. Rappoport, Bushra W. Taha and Sanford M. Simon

Video 1. TIR-FM video microscopy of region of MDCK cell transfected with dsRed-clathrin showing lateral motion of dsRed-clathrin spots. Acquisition time equals 300 ms per frame and each frame is played for 100 ms. The scale bar equals 2 mm.

Video 2. TIR-FM video microscopy of region of MDCK cell co-transfected with dsRed-clathrin and tau-EGFP showing lateral motion of a dsRed-clathrin spot along a microtubule; Video 2 is the same region shown in Figure 2. Acquisition time equals 300 ms per frame and each frame is played for 100 ms.
