N2 - Triskelions, trimeric complexes of clathrin and associated light chains, are the assembly units of clathrin coats [Ungewickell, E. & Branton, D. (1981) Nature (London) 289, 420-422; Kirchhausen, T. & Harrison, S. C. (1981) Cell 23, 755-761]. We report here that triskelions whose outer arms have been removed by trypsin digestion retain the ability to be assembled into coats. These digested timers contain a 110,000 molecular weight domain of clathrin and lack intact light chains.
