PTRF triggers a cave in

Cell
Rahul Chadda, Satyajit Mayor

Abstract

Caveolae are small membrane invaginations important for cell signaling that are characterized by the presence of caveolin proteins. Hill et al. (2008) have now identified PTRF as a new constituent of the caveolar coat. In the absence of PTRF, caveolae flatten and caveolin-1 is released into the cell membrane, where it is rapidly internalized and degraded.
