Research Abstract |
Defects in formation and transport of lysosome-related organelles (LROs) have been shown to cause human hereditary diseases, but the molecular mechanisms of their intracellular dynamics are poorly understood. In this study, we used melanosomes as a model for LROs and investigated their dynamics at the molecular level. We succeeded in identifying novel regulators that play a key role in melanosome biogenesis, matUration, and/or transport in melanocytes.
