Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In order to elucidate the mechanism by which specific G protein-coupled receptors localize to primary cilia, molecules that upregulate ciliary localization of serotonin receptor type 6 (Htr6) were explored. Yeast two-hybrid screening identified γ-adaptin as an interacting molecule of a region in the fourth intracellular domain of Htr6 that is important for ciliary localization of Htr6. By analysis of localization in hTERT-RPE1 cells knocked-out for γ-adaptin, it was suggested that localization of Htr6 to primary cilia is upregulated through the action of γ-adaptin on the fourth intracellular domain of Htr6.
