Description
We investigated how fission yeast modify endocytosis and exocytosis by testing a high-throughput assay to measure the rate of exocytosis and endocytosis in live cells. The methodology produced consistent rates for exocytosis and endocytosis on short timescales, ~0-15 minutes. Future results could have important implications for other eukaryotes including humans.
