#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

Unbound receptors are internalized at a relatively slow rate, on average once every 30 minutes, and are recycled rapidly to the plasma membrane so there is little reduction in the total number of surface receptors.

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

Following binding of an EGF ligand, the rate of endocytosis of HER1 is increased about tenfold, and only a fraction of the internalized receptors return to the plasma membrane; the rest are degraded in lysosomes.

Monoubiquitinylation of the HER1 cytosolic domain by the E3 ubiquitin ligase c-Cbl

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

c-Cbl 

adds a single ubiquitin to a given lysine of a protein

#Unit 4. Cell Communication and Cell Signaling

c-Cbl contains: 

a domain that binds directly to phosphorylated EGF receptors

a RING finger domain, which recruits ubiquitin-conjugating enzymes and mediates transfer of ubiquitin to the receptor

Other EGF family receptors HER2, HER3, and HER4 do not undergo internalization after exposure to ligand
