Functional analysis of Slac2-c/MyRIP as a linker protein between melanosomes and myosin VIIa.

The Journal of biological chemistry - 29 Jul 2005

Kuroda Taruho S, Fukuda Mitsunori

Abstract excerpt

Slac2-c/MyRIP, an in vitro Rab27A- and myosin Va/VIIa-binding protein, has recently been proposed to regulate retinal melanosome transport in retinal pigment epithelium cells by directly linking melanosome-bound Rab27A and myosin VIIa; however, the exact function of Slac2-c in melanosome transport has never been clarified. In this study, we used melanosome transport in skin melanocytes as a model for retinal...
