Outline of Final Research Achievements |
I have already shown a regulatory mechanism in neprilysin localization dependent on phosphorylation and dephosphorylation. While, I also found out the possibility that phosphorylation of neprilysin may be involved in the metabolism and allosteric activation. In this study, I succeed to reveal the relationship between neprilysin phosphorylation and metabolism.
