Fig. 6. Expression of Hub increases truncation of C-peptide. Cells were infected
with adenovirus, sorted and labelled as described in the legend to
Fig. 3. Radioactive truncated
(des-(27-31)-) and intact C-peptide were quantified by HPLC (see
Fig. 2). Truncated C-peptide is
expressed as a percentage of total detectable labelled C-peptide (intact +
truncated). Data are mean±s.e.m., n=4.
*P<0.01 for Hub vs control for products released during
the 150 minute basal chase.
