Abstract excerpt
Receptor-mediated internalization appears to be the primary mean of regulating the plasma level of thrombopoietin (TPO). However, the processes that regulate Mpl internalization have not previously been described. Using the cytokine-dependent cell line BaF3, we have identified 2 distinct motifs within the cytoplasmic domain of Mpl that underlie ligand-dependent internalization. Removal of the fourth cytoplasmic...
