Outline of Final Research Achievements |
Using mice deficient in the small GTP-binding protein Rab8a, we demonstrated that rab8a is responsible for the localization of apical proteins such as SGLT in intestinal epithelial cells. Rab8a knockout mice showed increased GLP-1 expression and co-expression of GLP-1and Chromogranin A, but the subcellular localization of GLP-1 was not affected. We therefore tried to generate knockout mice in which the localization of basolateral proteins is disrupted. However in all the knockout mice we analyzed, there were no obvious missorting of basolateral proteins. On the other hand, mice deficient in SNAP23 showed difference in hormone secretion, and this result is now under submission.
