Research Abstract |
Phogrin, a member of receptor protein tyrosine phosphatases, primarily localize on secretory granules (SGs) in a variety of neuroendocrine cells including pancreatic β-cells, and recycle between SGs and the plasma membrane upon stimulation of regulated secretion. We suggest that the transitory interaction of phogrin with insulin receptor enables autocrine insulin action in pancreatic β-cells through stabilization of IRS2 protein by inhibition of negative feedback mechanism. We also suggest that phogrin has a supportive role in SG formation, through providing a communication mechanism between the luminal CPE complex and the cytoplasmic transport machinery.
