Outline of Final Research Achievements |
In lymphoid cell, intracellular compartments, which keep the specific substances of the system and exchanges the substances between the compartments, is supported by endosomal sorting. Here, we elucidated endosomal sorting mechanism of interleukin-2 receptor β (IL-2Rβ) and interleukin-4 receptor α (IL-4Rα), and explored single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) of the receptors in allergy patients. We identified novel SNPs in IL-4Rα gene locus of the patients. On the other hand, the SNP involved in endosomal sorting was not detected in the patients.
