Research Abstract |
In this project, we attempted to reveal the mechanism by which -taxilin, a molecule related to vesicle transport, regulates intracellular delivery of molecules related to intracellular signal transduction. We obtained the following results: 1) -Taxilin was overexpressed in the regenerating liver after partial hepatectomy. 2) -Taxilin was localized on some intracellular organelles connected to the microtubule in Hela cells. 3) -Taxilin interacted with sorting nexin 4 and was implicated in the recycling of transferrin receptor. On the basis of these results, the possibility was raised that -taxilin might be involved in the complex formation of molecules related to intracellular signal transduction that are connected with transferrin receptor through regulating intracellular vesicle transport.
