Endocytosis
3D illustration depicting the three types of endocytosis. The first panel shows phagocytosis: a large particle is captured in an invagination in the plasma membrane and taken up in a vacuole. The second panel shows pinocytosis: small particles are captured in an invagination in the plasma membrane and taken up into a vacuole. The last panel shows receptor-mediated endocytosis: a ligand binds to a receptor, which is taken up into a clathrin-coated vesicle.
