Abstract

Deubiquitination by the Fat facets protein - a regulator of photoreceptor differentiation during Drosophila eye development - has been found to activate endocytosis, while ubiquitination inhibits endocytosis. Surprisingly, this is the opposite effect that ubiquitination has on endocytosis of many plasma membrane proteins.
