Abstract excerpt
To examine the temporal relationship between pre- and post-docking events, we generated a Munc18c temperature-sensitive mutant (Munc18c/TS) by substitution of arginine 240 with a lysine residue. At the permissive temperature (23 degrees C), overexpression of both the wild type (Munc18c/WT) and the R240K mutant inhibited insulin-stimulated GLUT4/IRAP vesicle translocation. However, at the non-permissive...
