Size doesn't matter! The importance of size variability in coated vesicles
Abstract
Coated vesicles are key components of the machinery of vesicular transport used by eukaryotic cells. In a recent story published in Science, Faini et al. (2012) report on the detailed 3D structure of a synthetically generated COPI vesicle coat obtained using cryoelectron tomography.
