Lecture 6

Cellular Uptake of Particles and Macromolecules

• materials too large to pass through membrane

o e.g. uptake of extracellular materials (ligands)

o e.g. uptake of transporters and signaling receptors no longer required

• uptake occurs into cytoplasmic vesicles derived from invaginations of cell membrane

• Two separate categories: 1. Endocytosis 2. Phagocytosis

Endocytosis

• uptake of dissolved solutes, macromolecules, signaling receptors, etc.

• Receptor-mediated endocytosis (RME): uptake of specific extracellular

macromolecules (ligands) that bind to receptors on

external cell membrane surface

• Take up hormones, growth factors, enzymes,

plasma proteins by binding to receptors

Endocytic Pathway (receptor-mediated) red=receptor;

blue=ligand

• receptors bind ligand – undergo conformational

change, clathrin binds on cytosolic side

• PM pinches in (via clathrin) to form early

endosome (EE)

• Clathrin goes off; early endosome matures into

sorting compartment (SC)

• sorting compartment lumen fluid acidified due to

action of membrane H+ pumps

• in low pH, ligands are released from cell

membrane receptors

• receptors are recycled back to cell membrane in

vesicles

• endosome carrier vesicles (ECV’s) leave SC and

fuse with late endosomes (LE) => mature into

lysosomes where contents are digested (via acid

hydrolases)

Phagocytosis (cell eating)

• uptake of relatively large particulate matter (>0.5

µm in diameter)

• for food, eg. Unicellular heterotrophic protists

• for protection, eg. macrophage, dendritic cells and

neutrophil immune cells

• because these cells have receptors on cell binds

particles (bacteria, dead cells, etc.)

• macrophage have Fc-receptor that binds to antibodies (IgG) that coat (called “opsonize –

has a layer of antibodies on it”) pathogens, etc.

Phagocytosis Pathway

• receptors(FcR) cluster into lipid rafts
