The aim of this study is to visualize and reconstitute transcription, translation, transport, and degradation of choresterol transporter ABCA1 in semi-intact cells, and elucidate the mechanisms of the related diseases, e.g. atherosclerosis. The reconstitution systems will be useful for screening factors which involve the diseases and development of therapeutic agents.
