M-INK, a novel tool for visualizing melanosomes and melanocores.

Journal of biochemistry - 1 Apr 2017

Ishida Morié, Marubashi Soujiro, Fukuda Mitsunori

Abstract excerpt

Melanosome transfer from melanocytes to surrounding keratinocytes is one of the crucial but less well-characterized steps in the process of skin pigmentation. Although several markers have generally been used to detect melanosomes in melanocytes, no suitable markers for melanosomes that have been transferred into keratinocytes have ever been reported. The melanocore-interacting Kif1c-tail (M-INK) probe we...
