The activity of several signalling receptor families is modulated by their endocytosis from the cell surface. Internalization of receptors can not only attenuate further response of receptors to ...

The interaction of μ-opioid receptor (MOPr) with the neuronal membrane glycoprotein M6a is known to facilitate MOPr endocytosis in human embryonic kidney 293 (HEK293) cells. To further study the ...

These regions invaginate to engulf the receptor-ligand complex and subsequently bud off from the plasma membrane to form clathrin-coated vesicles. This process is called endocytosis. These ...

Endocytosis and exocytosis are the processes by which cells move materials into or out of the cell that are too large to directly pass through the lipid bilayer of the cell membrane. Large molecules, ...

"The light receptor, rhodopsin is on the membrane surface ... Even processes such as cell migration have extensive endocytosis and membrane recycling events that must be tightly regulated.

Nervous necrosis virus typically enters host cells via endocytosis, but it can also enter via a process called macropinocytosis.

This article provides an introduction to dynamin and endocytosis and lists the inhibitors that are relevant to research. Dynamin is an important GTPase enzyme that takes part in different ...

Endocytosis and degradation of the membrane receptors in ... US show that hepatocyte growth factor regulates endosome membrane invagination and tyrosine kinase receptor (TKR) signaling in ...

Theories about endocytosis called into question Date: February 19, 2015 Source: Université de Genève Summary: There is no unequivocal explanation behind endocytosis. Two hypotheses prevail for ...

Endocytosis is a critical cellular function; it is used to absorb vital materials and can facilitate cell growth, motility, and communication. Now researchers have found a way to trigger the process, ...

In an article recently published in the journal Analytical Chemistry, the authors present an overview of the displayed protein’s endocytosis mechanism, motility behavior, and transport kinetics with ...

Endocytosis is implicated in Alzheimer’s pathogenesis, because the continuous swallowing up of proteins from the cell surface and packaging them into little organelles brings the amyloid precursor ...
