Granuphilin molecularly docks insulin granules to the fusion machinery

The Rab27a effector granuphilin is specifically localized on insulin granules and is involved in their exocytosis. Here we show that the number of insulin granules morphologically docked to the plasma membrane is markedly reduced in granuphilin-deficient β cells. Surprisingly, despite the docking de...
