transmembrane receptors that have been endocytosed Flashcards
1
Q
what are alternative fates of transmembrane receptor proteins that have been endocytosed?
A
recycling, transcytosis, degradation
2
Q
what is trascytosis?
A
results in the movement of molecules from the extracellular fluid on one side of a cell that on the other
3
Q
what type of cells use transcytosis?
A
highly polarized epithelial cells that line body cavities
4
Q
what is the role of recycling endosomes?
A
they regulate the availability of cell surface receptors
