The word "glycolipid" in example sentences

Clathrin-dependent endocytosis is a main entry mechanism for the glycolipid-binding Shiga toxin (Stx), although clathrin-independent pathways are also involved. ❋ Audrun Utskarpen Et Al. (2010)

Our data provide evidence that Stx/StxB, upon binding to its glycolipid receptor at the cell surface, is able to increase the formation of endocytic clathrin-coated structures directly detected by electron microscopy and indirectly by the appearance of AP-2 spots at the plasma membrane. ❋ Audrun Utskarpen Et Al. (2010)

It has recently been shown that the extra-cellular domain of the trans-membrane receptor Fas interacts strongly with Gb3 through a glycolipid-binding motif ❋ Audrun Utskarpen Et Al. (2010)

Motivated by our previous findings that Stx can mediate its own uptake and affect signaling, we set out to investigate if Stx, although binding to a glycolipid, was able to increase the formation of endocytic clathrin coat structures at the plasma membrane and if such increase in clathrin coats might be mediated by signaling through the Syk kinase. ❋ Audrun Utskarpen Et Al. (2010)
