Abstract: The present invention relates to a method of identifying an intracellular secretory protein or tissue-specific secretory protein, by using a proximity labeling system. When the method according to the present invention is used, it is possible to clearly identify an intracellular secretory protein and to dynamically track the spatiotemporal dynamics of a secretory protein secreted from a specific tissue in a living subject such that it can be effectively utilized for the research on endocrine signals between tissues, and particularly, since it can be applied in situ, the scope of application can be further expanded. Therefore, the present invention can be applied to various disease models or tissues to discover new biomarkers and therapeutic target proteins associated with diseases.

Abstract: The present disclosure provides FGF1 mutant proteins, such as those having an N-terminal deletion, point mutation(s), or combinations thereof, which can reduce blood glucose in a mammal. Such mutant FGF1 proteins can be part of a chimeric protein that includes a ?-Klotho-binding protein, an FGFR1c-binding protein, a ?-Klotho-binding protein and a FGFR1c-binding protein, a C-terminal region from FGF19 or FGF21. In some examples, mutant FGF1 proteins have reduced mitogenic activity. Also provided are nucleic acid molecules that encode such proteins, and vectors and cells that include such nucleic acids. Methods of using the disclosed molecules to reduce blood glucose levels are also provided.
