Septin5 deletion enhances β-cell exocytosis by releasing microtubule-tethered insulin granules onto plasma membrane

Abstract Septin5 interacts with SNARE proteins to regulate exocytosis in neurons, but its role in pancreatic β-cells is unknown. Here, we report that Septin5 is abundant in rodent and human β-cells, deletion of which dramatically enhances biphasic glucose-stimulated insulin secretion, including in t...
