  • Title: Cell-surface remodelling during mammalian erythropoiesis.
    Author: Wraith DC, Chesterton CJ.
    Journal: Biochem J; 1982 Oct 15; 208(1):239-42. PubMed ID: 7159394.
    Abstract:
    Current evidence suggests that the major cell-surface modification occurring during mammalian erythropoiesis could be generated by two separate mechanisms: either selective loss of membrane proteins during enucleation or endocytosis at the subsequent reticulocyte and erythrocyte stages. The former idea was tested by collecting developing rabbit erythroid cells before and after the enucleation step and comparing their cell-surface protein composition via radiolabelling and electrophoresis. Few changes were observed. Our data thus lend support to the endocytosis mechanism.
