Accession: GO:0005905
Name: clathrin-coated pit
Ontology: cellular_component
Synonyms: coated pit
Alternate IDs: None
Definition: A part of the endomembrane system in the form of an invagination of a membrane upon which a clathrin coat forms, and that can be converted by vesicle budding into a clathrin-coated vesicle. Coated pits form on the plasma membrane, where they are involved in receptor-mediated selective transport of many proteins and other macromolecules across the cell membrane, in the trans-Golgi network, and on some endosomes.
