Term Information

Accession
GO:0038024
Name
cargo receptor activity
Ontology
molecular_function
Synonyms
endocytic receptor activity, receptor activity involved in receptor-mediated endocytosis, receptor activity, transport receptor activity
Alternate IDs
None
Definition
Binding specifically to a substance (cargo) to deliver it to a transport vesicle. Cargo receptors span a membrane (either the plasma membrane or a vesicle membrane), binding simultaneously to cargo molecules and coat adaptors, to efficiently recruit soluble proteins to nascent vesicles. Source: PMID:15239958, PMID:27903609
Comment
Notes: (1) this term and its child terms are intended for receptors that bind to and internalize molecules by receptor-mediated endocytosis. For receptors that are coupled to a signal transduction pathway, consider instead the term 'signaling receptor activity ; GO:0038023' and its children. (2) Cargo receptors transport substances by vesicular transport, not by transmembrane transport. For transmembrane transporters, consider instead the term 'transmembrane transporter activity ; GO:0022857.
