Analysis of the kinetics of receptor entry. PG - 15938-45 AB - Selective enrichment of clathrin-coated membranes by anticlathrin immunoadsorption was used to examine the internalization of receptor-ligand complexes through coated pits. Using Staphylococcus aureus-anticlathrin antibody and [35S]methionine-labeled KB cells, the kinetics of association of the epidermal growth factor (EGF-R) and transferrin receptors (TF-R) with coated membranes were directly examined. The accumulation of EGF-R in coated pits at the cell surface was dependent upon EGF binding. EGF-R then passed sequentially through a compartment which did not react with anticlathrin antibody and a second clathrin-coated compartment. The EGF-R was degraded in lysosomes with a half-life of approximately 41-55 min. The tumor promoter, 4 beta-phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, appears to mimic the action of EGF in inducing EGF-R accumulation in coated pits at the cell surface and receptor internalization. In contrast to the results with EGF-R, the TF-R was found in clathrin-coated membranes in the presence or absence of TF, and the concentration of TF-R in clathrin-coated membranes did not significantly change with time. The method presented should be of great utility for examining the biochemical changes that occur during the receptor-mediated endocytosis and sorting of ligands and receptors.
