early endosomes

early endosomes
tubulovesicular sorting compartments containing newly internalized proteins and their receptors and lying near the plasma membrane; their interior pH is approximately 6.0, which encourages the dissociation of receptors, which are transferred to recycling endosomes, and ligands, which are transferred to the Golgi complex by late endosomes.
