The ESCRT machinery

Open access
Schmidt, Oliver, Teis, David·2012·Current Biology

Abstract

Summary The endosomal sorting complexes required for transport (ESCRT) assemble into a multisubunit machinery that performs a topologically unique membrane bending and scission reaction away from the cytoplasm. This evolutionarily highly conserved process is required for the multivesicular body (MVB) pathway, cytokinesis and HIV budding. The modular setup of the machinery with five distinct ESCRT complexes (ESCRT-0, -I, -II, -III and the Vps4 complex) that have a clear division of tasks — from interaction with ubiquitinated membrane proteins to membrane deformation and abscission — allows them to be flexibly integrated into these three very different biological processes (Figure 1).

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
