“…In several receptors, a tyrosine-based motif required for receptor internalization has been described (Davis et al, 1987;Chen et al, 1990;Collawn et al, 1990;Carnfield et al, 1991;Peters et al, 1990;Eberle et al, 1991 cytoplasmic tails have demonstrated a tyrosine-based motif (YQPLK) including mouse CD3-y Y137, corresponding to human CD3-y Y138, which is sufficient to induce both internalization and delivery to lysosomes of Tac (Letourneur and Klausner, 1992b and a tails that, independently of the tyrosine-based motif, was sufficient to induce both endocytosis and delivery to lysosomes of Tac (Letourneur and Klausner, 1992b). The critical residues in the di-leucine-based motif included L130 and L131 in the mouse CD3'y tail, corresponding to L131 and L132 in the human CD3'y tail.…”
