Abstract excerpt
In muscle and adipose cells, the insulin-responsive aminopeptidase (IRAP) is localized to intracellular storage sites and undergoes insulin-dependent redistribution to the cell surface. Following expression, the newly synthesized IRAP protein traffics to the perinuclear insulin-sensitive compartment and acquires insulin sensitivity 6-9 h following biosynthesis. Knockdown of GGA1 by RNA interference prevented IRAP...
