| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The establishment and maintenance of cell polarity is essential to a wide range of biological processes, including axon formation and cell migration. In elucidating of molecular basis of cell polarization, cell polarity proteins such as PAR complex, and Scrib complex have been studied. In these studies, various kinases have been shown to act as cell polarity regulators. However, how these kinases regulate cell polarization is poorly understood. In this study, we used our recently developed proteomic system and identified numerous candidate substrates downstream of polarity-related kinases. Based on the substrate screening results, we analyzed the spatiotemporal dynamics and function of the identified substrates during cell migration. Recently, we also revealed how neurons can grow only a single axon while preventing the formation of unnecessary axons during neuronal polarization.
