Research Abstract |
In this project, we found that the folding efficiency of some membrane glycoproteins was impaired by liver-specific knockout of ER-60. It was demonstrated that ER stress might be easily induced in ER-60 knockout mice by long feeding of high-fat diet. We attempted to confirm the protective effects of ER-60 against toxicity of amyloid beta peptides by brain-specific ER-60 knockout. In addition, we succeeded in X-ray structural analysis of a complex with the bb' fragment of ER-60 andβ-amyloid peptide.
