Large self-assembled clathrin lattices spontaneously disassemble without sufficient adaptor proteins.
Clathrin-coated structures must assemble on cell membranes to internalize receptors, with the clathrin protein only linked to the membrane via adaptor proteins. These structures can grow surprisingly large, containing over 20 clathrin, yet they often fail to form productive vesicles, instead abortin...
