Generalities
Clathrin is a 3 legged protein with 3 heavy chains and 3 light chains. It has a triskelion chain
Function
Communication beetween the different compartiments of eukaryotic cell and plasma membrane is allowed by vesicles, wich transport molecules within the cytoplasm. Clathrin are involved in the formation of those vesicles in a process named clathrin mediated endocytosis. Clathrins form a skeleton around the vesicle once several protein are assembled. The coated vesicles like so formed will then lose their round protein skeleton after their departure from the initial compartment because the clathrin cage is dismantled.
