From the The insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP) is a
zinc-dependent membrane aminopeptidase. It is the homologue
of the human placental leucine aminopeptidase. In fat and muscle cells,
IRAP colocalizes with the insulin-responsive glucose transporter GLUT4 in intracellular vesicles and redistributes to the cell surface in
response to insulin, as GLUT4 does. To address the question of the
physiological function of IRAP, we generated mice with a targeted
disruption of the IRAP gene (IRAP
Mice Deficient in the Insulin-regulated Membrane Aminopeptidase

). Herein, we describe the
characterization of these mice with regard to glucose homeostasis and
regulation of GLUT4. Fed and fasted blood glucose and insulin levels in
the IRAP
/
mice were normal. Whereas IRAP
/
mice responded to
glucose administration like control mice, they exhibited an impaired
response to insulin. Basal and insulin-stimulated glucose uptake in
extensor digitorum longus muscle, and adipocytes isolated from
IRAP
/
mice were decreased by 30-60% but were normal for soleus
muscle from male IRAP
/
mice. Total GLUT4 levels were diminished by
40-85% in the IRAP
/
mice in the different muscles and in
adipocytes. The relative distribution of GLUT4 in subcellular fractions
of basal and insulin-stimulated IRAP
/
adipocytes was the same as in
control cells. We conclude that IRAP
/
mice maintain normal glucose
homeostasis despite decreased glucose uptake into muscle and fat cells.
The absence of IRAP does not affect the subcellular distribution of
GLUT4 in adipocytes. However, it leads to substantial decreases in
GLUT4 expression.
