Rab27A-binding protein Slp2-a is required for peripheral melanosome distribution and elongated cell shape in melanocytes
&
Abstract
The synaptotagmin-like protein (Slp) family is implicated in regulating Rab27A-mediated membrane transport, but how it might do this is unknown. Here we report that Slp2-a, a previously uncharacterized Rab27A-binding protein in melanocytes, controls melanosome distribution in the cell periphery and regulates the morphology of melanocytes.
