A rab protein regulates the localization of secretory granules in AtT-20 cells.

abstract：:Stearoyl-coenzyme A desaturase (SCD) is a key regulator of membrane fluidity, turns over rapidly, and represents a prototype for selective degradation of resident proteins of the endoplasmic reticulum. Using detergent-solubilized, desaturase-induced rat liver microsomes we have characterized a protease that degrades S...
