High impact information on gammaCop

  • The gamma-COP subunit of the coatomer is believed to mediate the binding to the cytoplasmic dilysine motifs of membrane proteins [1].
  • It was inserted in the gammaCOP locus on chromosome 3R. gammaCOP is a component of the COPI coatomer involved in membrane traffic [2].
  • GM130 is involved in the docking and fusion of coatomer (COP I) coated vesicles to the Golgi membranes; it also regulates the fragmentation and subsequent reassembly of the Golgi complex during mitosis [3].
