MeSH definition : The main structural coat protein of COATED VESICLES which play a key role in the intracellular
transport between membranous organelles. Each molecule of clathrin consists of three
light chains (CLATHRIN LIGHT CHAINS) and three heavy chains (CLATHRIN HEAVY CHAINS)
that form a structure called a triskelion. Clathrin also interacts with cytoskeletal
proteins.;
MeSH annotation : CLATHRIN ASSEMBLY PROTEINS see ADAPTOR PROTEINS, VESICULAR TRANSPORT is available;
