Abstract excerpt
Lamp 1 and lysosomal acid phosphatase (LAP) are lysosomal membrane proteins that harbour a tyrosine-based sorting motif within their short cytoplasmic tails. Lamp 1 is delivered from the trans-Golgi network (TGN) via endosomes directly to lysosomes bypassing the plasma membrane, whereas LAP is indirectly transported to lysosomes and recycles between endosomes and the plasma membrane before being delivered to...
