Journal of Cell Science is pleased to present a collection of articles that focus on the endosomal sorting complex required for transport (ESCRT) machinery. These complexes were initially identified on the basis of their important function in the sorting of ubiquitylated receptors into multivesicular bodies. Since this discovery, cell biologists have made significant progress in understanding the structure of the ESCRT machinery at the molecular level, and it is now clear that its function extends to many other topologically equivalent cellular processes that involve a membrane-scission event. Our Minifocus on the ESCRT machinery contains three articles that bring these new ideas together:
