1: 当初の計画以上に進展している
理由
In order to analyze the role of JSAPs in lysosome positioning, JLP or JSAP1 knockdown cells were prepared. While JLP knockdown on cells give an expected phenotype, i.e. impairment of retrograde trafficking of lysosome, JSAP1 knockdown gives a different phenotype. Furthermore, sensitivity of JLP or JSAP1 knockdown cell toward curcumin-induced cell death were similar. This may suggest JLP and JSAP1, despite a high sequence homology, plays a different role in lysosome trafficking.

今後の研究の推進方策 |
For future analysis of JSAPs-dependent lysosome trafficking, we will elucidate how the involvement of JSAP1 in the lysosome trafficking. For this purpose, knockdown and Crispr/Cas9-mediated knockout of JSAP1 gene in the cell model will be generated. Rescue experiment will be done in order to understand the function of JSAP1 in lysosome trafficking, autophagy and curcumin-induced cell death. By understanding the role of the two protein, we may able to clarify how lysosome trafficking is regulated under certain context.
