Abstract

It was found that cultured mouse macrophages preferentially endocytose and degrade short half-life serum and cytosol proteins. With increasing duration of endocytosis, the components of longer half-life are increasingly endocytosed and degraded. The relevance of these observations to the selectivity of protein turnover is discussed.
