Cancer cells frequently exhibit elevated levels of receptors such as the folate receptor, transferrin receptor, epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR), human epidermal growth factor receptor-2 (HER2), and integrins, which can be exploited for receptor-mediated endocytosis
Atomic absorption spectroscopy or ICP-MS on a digested sample gives total copper independent of the peptide, and combining that with peptide content establishes stoichiometry rather than assuming it

Comprehensive Landscape of BRAF Variant Classes, Clonalities, and Co-Mutations in Metastatic Colorectal Cancer Using ctDNA Profiling
The hydrophobicity of the phenylalanine cluster in crevasse, along with the ability of fatty acids longer than octanoic acid (C8:0), such as lauric acid (C12:0) and palmitic acid (C16:0), to activate the ghrelin receptor, initially led to the hypothesis that the fatty acid chain of ghrelin extends through this crevasse into the cell membrane (Matsumoto et al., 2001)
