Title:
PROPHYLACTIC OR THERAPEUTIC AGENT FOR CYSTIC FIBROSIS
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/168777
Kind Code:
A1
Abstract:
Provided are a method whereby cystic fibrosis can be prevented or treated by inhibiting a mechanism in which ΔF508 CFTR expressed in the plasma membrane is ubiquitinated by a plasma membrane quality control system and then subjected to endocytosis followed by lysosomal degradation, etc. More specifically, provided are: a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for cystic fibrosis which comprises a specific polypeptide or nucleic acid; and a method for screening a prophylactic or therapeutic agent for cystic fibrosis, said method comprising the following step (1) or (2). (1) A step for measuring an interaction between CFTR having a mutation of lacking phenylalanine at the 508-position or a peptide fragment containing the aforesaid mutation and RFFL or a peptide fragment containing a fragment thereof. (2) A step for measuring the ubiquitin ligase activity of RFFL.
