Abstract:Golgi undergoes disorganization in response to the drugs or alcohol, but it is able to restore compact structure under recovery. This self-organization mechanism remains mostly elusive, as does the role of giantin, the largest Golgi matrix dimeric protein. Here, we found that in cells treated with Brefeldin A (BFA) or ethanol (EtOH), Golgi disassembly is associated with giantin de-dimerization, which was restored to the dimer form after BFA or EtOH washout. Cells lacking giantin are disabled for the restoratio… Show more
