Involvement of conventional kinesin in glucose-stimulate secretory granule movements and exocytosis in clonal pancreatic β-cells (2002)
Journal Article
Varadi, A., Ainscow, E., Allan, V. J., & Rutter, G. A. (2002). Involvement of conventional kinesin in glucose-stimulate secretory granule movements and exocytosis in clonal pancreatic β-cells. Journal of Cell Science, 115(21), 4177-4189. https://doi.org/10.1242/jcs.00083

Recruitment of secretory vesicles to the cell surface is essential for the sustained secretion of insulin in response to glucose. At present, the molecular motors involved in this movement, and the mechanisms whereby they may be regulated, are undefi...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations ([Ca2+]cyt) and hence in insulin secretion from pancreatic β-cells. However, the molecular mechanisms involved in both the uptake and release of Ca...
