1 15937548 We have carried out comprehensive studies of the diabetogenic CD8 T cell population that targets residues 206-214 of the beta cell antigen islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP(206-214)) and undergoes avidity maturation as disease progresses.
2 17065343 In an effort to identify novel epitopes, we used matrix-assisted algorithms to predict peptides of glial fibrillary acidic protein (GFAP), prepro-islet amyloid polypeptide (ppIAPP), and islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP) that likely bind to HLA-A*0201 with a strong affinity and contain a COOH-terminal proteasomal cleavage site.
3 17065344 To identify additional epitopes, HLA class I peptide affinity algorithms were used to identify a panel of peptides derived from the beta-cell proteins islet amyloid polypeptide (IAPP), islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP), insulin, insulinoma-associated antigen 2 (IA-2), and phogrin that were predicted to bind HLA-A*0201.
4 17376840 The aim of this study was to assess whether an epitope derived from the islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP), IGRP(265-273,) which has recently been identified as a target in non-obese diabetic (NOD) mice and is fully homologous to the human epitope, is a target of human diabetogenic CD8(+) T cells.
5 19209463 A very significant fraction of islet-associated CD8 T cells in NOD mice recognize epitopes of islet-specific glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit-related protein (IGRP), a non-essential endoplasmic reticulum-resident protein of unclear function.
6 19209463 IGRP is also a target of CD8 T cell responses in human T1D patients.
7 19741163 Glucokinase (GCK) and glucose-6-phosphatase catalytic subunit 2 (G6PC2) regulate the glucose-cycling step in pancreatic beta-cells and may regulate insulin secretion.
8 19741163 Our data suggest that variation in GCK and G6PC2 have additive effects on both fasting glucose and insulin secretion.
9 15180990 Gel retardation assays revealed that another islet-enriched transcription factor, namely Pdx-1, binds four non-consensus elements in the IGRP promoter.
10 15180990 Although chromatin immunoprecipitation assays show that both Pax-6 and Pdx-1 bind to the IGRP promoter within intact cells, in contrast to the critical role of these factors in beta cell-specific insulin gene expression, IGRP gene transcription appears to require Pax-6 but not Pdx-1.
11 18753309 Chromatin immunoprecipitation (ChIP) assays have shown that the IGRP promoter binds the islet-enriched transcription factors Pax-6 and BETA2.
12 18753309 We show here, again using ChIP assays, that the IGRP promoter also binds the islet-enriched transcription factors MafA and Foxa2.
