The clathrin assembly protein PICALM is required for erythroid maturation and transferrin internalization in mice.
Phosphatidylinositol binding clathrin assembly protein (PICALM), also known as clathrin assembly lymphoid myeloid leukemia protein (CALM), was originally isolated as click here part of the fusion gene CALM/AF10, which results from the chromosomal translocation t(10;11)(p13;q14).CALM is sufficient to drive clathrin assembly in vitro on lipid monolay
