CendR endocytosis is mechanistically distinct from known endocytic pathways(A) The effect of knocking down selected hit genes from the genome screen on R-Ag and TFuptake using individual siRNAs format. The values represent relative probe uptakenormalized to that of negative controls (which is 1, Supplementary Data 2). The heat-map andclustering analysis were generated using Gene-E (Broad institute).(B) R-Ag uptake is not affected by Cav-ME and MP inhibitors. PPC1 cells were treated withindicated inhibitors (mβCD or Rottlerin) followed by testing for probe uptake(R-Ag, CtxB or Dex) as described in Methods. The fluorescence intensity of each probe wasnormalized to the average of the corresponding negative controls (vehicle alone) asrelative uptake (y-axis). *P<0.05 and **P<0.01(Student's t-test).(C) CendR cargo does not compete with other endocytic pathways. Unlabeled CendR peptide,RPARPAR-OH, was added to culture media of PPC1 cells at the indicated concentrations(upper right corner) 10 min prior to addition of fluorescently labeled endocytic probes(x-axis). The intensity of probe signal was normalized to the average of untreated cells(0 µM) as relative uptake (y-axis).(D) R-Ag does not colocalize with structural components of CME and Cav-ME vesicles. PPC1cells were incubated with R-Ag, TF-594 or CtxB (red) for 15 min before washing andfixation. CLTC and CAV1 proteins were detected with rabbit anti-CLTC and anti-CAV1antibodies, followed by staining with anti-rabbit secondary antibody (green). Nuclei werelabeled with Hoechst 33342 (blue). Representative images captured by confocal microscopyare shown. The colocalization events between two probes were identified with the“colocalization highlighter” macro for Image J and shown in yellow. Scalebar, 10 µm. Error bars indicate SEM (3-5 replicates).

(f) k-Nearest neighbour analysis (k=10) of NEP and AP180 showing a maximum at 25 nm. The red line represents results after toroidal shift of one channel.

Biological function summary
Functions of the clathrin heavy chain include mediating the endocytosis of receptors and other membrane proteins contributing to intracellular sorting and vesicle trafficking. It is a part of the clathrin triskelion complex which is essential for maintaining proper cellular homeostasis. The clathrin lattice structure dynamically assembles and disassembles to facilitate the transport of molecules from the plasma membrane to the endosomes influencing endocytic and post-Golgi network trafficking processes. This protein's ability to form complexes enables efficient cargo selection and vesicle scission.
Pathways
Clathrin-mediated endocytosis serves as a critical pathway for internalizing substances and is fundamental in the regulation of signal transduction pathways and receptor recycling. The clathrin heavy chain interacts closely with proteins such as adaptins and dynamin in these pathways to ensure accurate vesicle budding and trafficking. In synaptic vesicle recycling clathrin collaborates with proteins like synaptotagmins to manage neurotransmitter release maintaining synaptic transmission and neuronal function.
