Calculations

... a surface area of 3,400 μm2. Assume that the endocytic clathrin-coated pits account for 2% of this area and that the surface area of a single coated pit is the same of that of a 100 nm diameter clathrin-coated vesicle that will be formed from it. If the cell surface has 100, 000 transferrin ...
