Abstract | BACKGROUND: Activation of Mas-related G protein-coupled receptor C (MrgC) receptors relieves pain, but also leads to ubiquitination of MrgC receptors. Ubiquitination mediates MrgC receptor endocytosis and degradation. However, MrgC degradation pathways and ubiquitin-linked chain types are not known. METHODS: RESULTS: The amount of MrgC protein decreased with time after CHX treatment of N2a cells. Autophagy lysosome inhibitors can inhibit the degradation of MrgC. The amount of MrgC protein decreased with time after CHX treatment of N2a cells. 3-MA and CQ inhibited the degradation of MrgC protein, whereas Mg-132 did not inhibit it. Partially internalized MrgC receptors were co-labeled with lysosomes. MrgC proteins have multiple topologies of ubiquitin-modified chains. CONCLUSION:
