The kinetics and spatial localization of these signals are critical determinants of cellular responses, yet receptor trafficking - including internalization, endosomal sorting, and recycling - remains a pivotal but often overlooked component of theoretical GPCR models. Here, we present a generic GPCR dynamic model that explicitly integrates receptor trafficking and signaling compartmentalization, enabling systematic characterization of the role of endosomal dynamics and receptor recycling on ligand-induced cellular responses. Then, as a case study, a model selection method with high-throughput kinetic data from the follicle-stimulating hormone receptor (FSHR) is used to reveal the impact of receptor trafficking on FSH-induced signaling responses. Although only a small fraction of FSHRs is internalized, these receptors produce a highly active endosomal response, underscoring the strong effect that any drug perturbing receptor trafficking can have. Our approach thus provides a refined tool for the pharmacological characterization of ligands and advances understanding of the spatial organization of FSHR signaling. Beyond this specific receptor, the methodology offers a generalizable strategy for modeling GPCR trafficking dynamics.
