Abstract excerpt
Ligand-induced internalization of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) leads to accelerated receptor degradation. Two models have been proposed to explain this. In the first model, induced internalization expands the intracellular pool of receptors, leading to enhanced lysosomal targeting....
