Many hormones, growth factors, and other large molecules bind to
speci Jic receptors on the surface of eukaryotic cells and are
rapidly taken into these cells. Current techniques of protein
purification have made available sufficient amounts of these
molecules so that detailed studies of their interaction with cells
could be carried out. These studies have been performed on just a
few types of cells, but it is clear that all types of cells carry
out a_ similar internalization process. The realization that cells
rapidly internalize hormones, growth factors, transport proteins,
toxins, and viruses has led many investigators to address a similar
series of questions: (1) What is the pathway by which
macromolecules enter cells? (2) Do all macromolecules enter by the
same pathway? (3) What is the function of internalization of large
molecules? (4) What is the biochemical mechan ism of
internalization? In this volume we have tried to provide answers to
these and related questions. To do this we have asked scientists
currently active in the field to contribute chapters in their
special areas of interest. The selection of the material covered
reflects in large part areas of active research. Because of space
limitations some important areas have not been covered as fully as
we would have liked in this volume, but will be covered in a future
volume. Our aim has been to present a consistent view and, when
disagreements exist, to point out the basis of such disagreements."
