Research Abstract	がん細胞における細胞周期制御異常の機構を明らかにすることを目的として、大腸癌のがん抑制遺伝子APCおよびBAP1/MAGI・PAPINなどの上皮細胞膜裏打ち蛋白質の機能を解析し、以下の知見を得た。1)大腸がん細胞で発現している変異APC断片は、Rac特異的GEF分子Asefを恒常的に活性化して細胞接着の低下、細胞運動の異常な亢進を引き起こしていることを明らかにした。正常APCを発現するがん細胞ではAsefの恒常的活性化は起こっていなかった。2)APCは、KAP3を介してKIF3A/3Bと複合体を形成し、微小管に沿って移動して細胞先端に集積するが、Asefも先導端に集積することを見出した。APCとAsefは先導端のみでなく細胞接着面、ラッフリング膜などでも局在が一致した。3)癌遺伝子Bc19の産物と相同性のあるB9Lを見出し、β-cateninに結合してβ-catenin-TCF複合体による転写活性化を促進することを明らかにした。4)APCにRing fingerタイプのユビキチンligaseが結合し、ユビキチン化-プロテアソームによる分解を引き起こすことを明らかにした。5)β-cateninおよびTGF-βの標的遺伝子を単離した。6)上皮細胞間結合のtight junctionの裏打ち蛋白質BAP1/MAGI-1がBAP1/MAGI-1と協働してtight junctionにおける分子の透過性を制御する可能性を明らかにした。7)BAP1/MAGI-1に結合する新規分子Caromが、細胞極性が確立したあとにはadherence junctionに局在してCASKと相互作用することを明らかにした。8)I型肺胞上皮細胞に発現している膜貫通蛋白質T1αとReceptor for advanced glycation endproducts (RAGE)が、I型肺胞上皮細胞の極性マーカーとして使用できることを明らかにした。
