CD-M6PR Proteins and Enzymes

Lysosomal enzymes containing one or two mannose 6-phosphate (man6P) moieties are moved about in the cell by two distinct but interconnected cycles by means of 300 kDa cation independent mannose 6-phospate receptors (CI-MPR). The biosynthetic cycle refers to the MPR transport of newly synthesized lysosomal enzymes from the trans Golgi network to late endosomes or early lysosomes. The endocytic cycle transports extracellular lysosomal enzymes from the plasma membrane via clathrin-coated vesicles ...
