Unravelling protein sorting

Abstract: Protein sorting to distinct plasma membrane domains in polarized epithelial cells is thought to occur in the Golgi complex, and to be mediated in part by lipid rafts. Now, analysis of protein trafficking in live cells has revealed unexpected sorting pathways that raise new questions about the specificity and sites of action of sorting mechanisms.Many cell types display an asymmetric or polarized organization of proteins in different domains of the plasma membrane. This organization reflects a requirement for a… Show more
