What two types of receptors are involved in receptor mediated endocytosis, and what types of substances are their “ligands”? What function does receptor mediated endocytosis play for each type of receptor?
Receptor mediated endocytosis is a form of endocytosis in which receptor proteins on the cell surface are used to capture a specific target molecule.the receptors which are trans membrane proteins,cluster in regions of plasma membrane.
Two types of receptors involved in receptor mediated endocytosis are
1 - LDL receptor - (low density Lippo protein receptor) is a mosaic protein of 839 amino acids. Its main function is to mediate the endocytosis of cholestrol rich LDL and thus maintaining plasma level of LDL. They are clustered in clatherin coated pits.This occurs in nucleated cells mainly in liver.After internalisation they disociate from their ligand in lower pH.
A cell surface LDL receptor binds to an ApoB protein embeded in the phospholipid bilayer of an LDL particle forming receptor ligand complex
2 - Transferrin receptor - is a carrier protein for transferrin, a major glyco protein in blood.Its main function is to transfer iron in to all tissues cells from the liver.All mammalian cells contains cell surface transferrin receptors that bind with ferrotransferrin with high affinity.
The transferrin dimer carrying two bound atoms of Fe3+ called ferrotransferrin binds to the transferrin receptor at the cell surface

QUESTION 22 In receptor-mediated endocytosis, each of the following is a possible fate for the receptors andor vesicle contents except A. digestion in a lysosome. B. release from the vesicle into the ER. OC. All of these answers are possible fates D. None of these answers are possible fates E. transcytosis. F. recycling to the plasma membrane.
Many extracellular proteins are internalized by receptor-mediated endocytosis. What are the molecular signals that trigger uptake of a protein by receptor mediated endocytosis?
During receptor-mediated endocytosis, the ultimate fate of the vesicle and/or its contents can include O A. fusion with early endosome and release of ligand O B. Transcytosis OC. Recycling of receptors OD. Digestion of ligand O E. only choices A and B OF. only choices A and C O G. All of the choices are possibilities O H. None of these are possible
Receptor-mediated endocytosis depends on functional cell surface receptor proteins True O False Question 29 1.5 pts A certain cell needs to move a molecule of sucrose out of the cell. The concentration of sucrose in the extracellular space is greater than that in the cell's cytoplasm. What type of transport mechanism would the cell use? O passive transport exocytosis active transport osmosis In the lipid bilayer the phospholipid tails are hydrophobic hydrophilic Question 31 1.5 p A human white blood...
Which of the following processes only moves substances into a cell? exocytosis active transport endocytosis facilitated diffusion What process do white blood cells use to engulf bacteria? pinocytosis phagocytosis receptor-mediated endocytosis exocytosis
Although each class of extracellular receptors can respond to a wide variety of signals, certain types of responses are more frequently elicited by the different classes Mutations in the downstream signalling cascade of which type of receptors are most likely to be associated with the development and progression of cancer? Enzyme-coupled receptors protein coupled receptors lon-channel coupled receptors You are the first scientist to study the signaling pathway regulating a particular cellular response, so very little is known about the...
Select one compound (drug or toxicant) that targets one of the three receptor types(G-protein coupled receptor pathway, A receptor tyrosine kinase pathway, An ion channel pathway ) and discuss the following for the selected compound: The name of the receptor involved The type of ligand that the drug or toxicant presents: Agonist, antagonist Are there natural ligands that interact with the receptor? If so explain the interaction. Provide a brief explanation of the mechanism of the cellular response upon ligand...

Membrane-bound receptors are an important component facilitating some types of cellular communication; however, not all signal-receptor binding occurs outside the cell membrane. Some signal molecules are able to pass through the plasma membrane, and their receptors are intracellular. In a theoretical lab study, scientists work to design a lab experiment that would inhibit some molecules’ ability to bind with their intracellular receptors. (a) Draw conclusions about the structure and function of membrane proteins. (b) Identify some molecules that are able...
For hearing specifically... 1. What is/are the receptors? 2. How does the receptor work? 3. How does info from the receptor(s) get to the brain? 4. Where in the brain does it go? 5. What happens in the brain?
