Western Blot of recombinant cells.
(A) Western blotting indicates similar expression levels of exogenous eGFP-CCDC32(FL), eGFP, eGFP-CCDC32(1-54), and eGFP-CCDC32(∆78–98) in ARPE-HPV mRuby-CLCa cells. (B) siCCDC32 knocked down endogenous CCDC32 but not exogenously introduced eGFP-CCDC32(FL) from ARPE-HPV mRuby-CLCa cells. Note that the anti-CCDC32 antibody does not detect the eGFP-CCDC32(∆78–98) as well as full-length and is unable to detect eGFP-CCDC32(1-54).

Diffuse PM fluorescence is greatest for eGFP-CCDC32(FL), diminished, but detectable for eGFP-CCDC32(∆78–98), but absent for eGFP-CCDC32(1-54) and control eGFP. Scale bar = 5 µm. Blue dashed line indicates the background PM fluorescence of eGFP.
Cartoon illustration of CCDC32-AP2 interactions that regulate CME.
Interactions between residues 78–98, corresponding to a central α-helix of CCDC32, and AP2 are essential for recruitment of CCDC32 to CCPs. Depleting CCDC32 (∆CCDC32) inhibits CCP stabilization and invagination, resulting in enhanced CCS abortion and accumulated flat clathrin assembly intermediates. As a compensation effect, CCS initiation is enhanced and CCP maturation is faster, resulting in only slightly reduced cargo internalization. EAPs: endocytic accessory proteins.
