Extracellular matrix remodeling through endocytosis and resurfacing of Tenascin-R
Synapses are surrounded by an extracellular matrix (ECM) of extremely long-lived proteins that is thought to only be remodeled by proteolysis and de novo synthesis. Here, the authors show an alternative molecular recycling mechanism that occurs for the key ECM protein Tenascin-R.
