A neurotoxic phospholipase A2 impairs yeast amphiphysin activity and reduces endocytosis.

BACKGROUND: Presynaptically neurotoxic phospholipases A(2) inhibit synaptic vesicle recycling through endocytosis. PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Here we provide insight into the action of a presynaptically neurotoxic phospholipase A(2) ammodytoxin A (AtxA) on clathrin-dependent endocytosis in budding yeast. A...
