Published 07/28/2024 In I-Cell disease, cells have large {{c1::inclusions}} due to accumulation of undegraded substances
Published 07/28/2024 In I-Cell disease, many cells are missing {{c1::lysosomal enzymes}}
Published 07/28/2024 I-Cell disease is caused by a defect in the {{c1::GlcNAc phosphotransferase (N-acetylglucosamine-1-phosphotransferase)}}, therefore {{c2::ma…

Published 07/28/2024 {{c1::epidermal growth factor receptor}} is an example of receptor down regulation following mediated endocytosis
Published 07/28/2024 late endosomes are {{c1::acidic}} with a pH around {{c1::5.5-6.0}} which form lysosomes by a {{c2::further decrease}} in pH
Published 07/28/2024 Mannose-6-phosphate tag gets added to target {{c1::degradative}} enzymes which are destined for trafficking to {{c1::lysosomes}} in a {{c2::2}} step r…
