| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the calcium store in cells. In response to various stimuli, the ER releases calcium into the cytosol where calcium dependent proteins are activated. On the other side of the coin, calcium depletion from the ER occurs. We have previously found that ER calcium depletion is critical for skeletal myoblast differentiation. In the present project, I have examined the precise timing of ER calcium depletion in differentiating myoblast cells. By analyzing the behaviors of proteins that regulate calcium dynamics in the ER, and those of calcium dependent proteins, I have gotten clues as to the regulation mechanism of ER calcium depletion and its roles in skeletal muscle differentiation.
