Abstract excerpt
Glucokinase (GK) activity plays a key role in glucose-stimulated insulin secretion from pancreatic beta cells. Insulin regulates GK activity by modulating its association with secretory granules, although little is known about the mechanisms involved in regulating this association. Using quantitative imaging of multicolor fluorescent proteins fused to GK, we found that the dynamic association of GK with secretory...
