Evidence Snippets
In many different cell types, the plasma membrane is heavily decorated with small pits of 60–80 nm in diameter, which constitute a specialized type of microdomain called caveolae.

Multi-threshold modularity analysis suggests that S1A scaffolds interact to form larger scaffolds and that S1A dimers group together in the presence of CAVIN1 to form the caveolae coat.

Caveolin expression induces and is required for caveola formation.

Cavin-1/PTRF is an essential factor required for stabilization of caveolae at the plasma membrane.
cavin-1 (also known as polymerase I and transcript release factor, PTRF) ... as an essential factor required for the stabilization of caveolae at the plasma membrane
Many proposed caveola-associated signaling interactions require confirmation with independent techniques and should distinguish caveolar from non-caveolar caveolin pools.
many of these interactions need to be confirmed by using independent techniques ... In addition, roles for caveolar and non-caveolar pools of caveolin must be considered
Caveolae have been implicated in endocytosis, cholesterol and lipid metabolism, mechanosensation, and cellular signaling.

Stabilization of caveolae by the cavin complex is proposed to arise from multiple weak phosphatidylserine-cavin interactions consistent with coincidence detection.
the stabilisation of caveolae by the cavin complex could be the result of the sum of the many – but relatively weak – binding interactions between PtSer and cavin molecules. Such a mechanism, termed coincidence detection
