How To Identify This CAP Inhibitor
Add Trypsin-coated beads to the apical side of Normal and CF cells
Identify bound proteins by mass spectrometry
Palate, LUng & Nasal epithelial Clone
Short PLUNC1 a.k.a. SPLUNC1(256 aa’s)
Bingle & Bingle, 2000
SPLUNC1 is typically found in the upper airways &
glands
Campos et al., 2004
Goals of Project
Further Understand Protease Regulation of ENaC
Characterize Defective Protease Regulation in CF
Use These Findings to Develop Strategies to Treat Overactive ENaC in CF
Experimental Questions
If Splunc1 is removed will bronchial cultures be able to properly regulate airway surface liquid levels?
Does Splunc1 alone inhibit ENaC conductance?
SPLUNC1 Is Necessary for ASL Regulation in Bronchial Cultures
