High impact information on Golga2

  • The transfection of either wild type (WT) or several mutant constructs (P448L, C318Y, L276I) into myotubes consistently showed clear co-localisation with GM130, a Golgi marker [1].
  • Moreover, we were successful in transfecting a dominant-negative ADP ribosylation factor 1 (ARF1) mutant, i.e., ARF1N126I, in myotubes, thus interfering with endoplasmic reticulum-Golgi traffic, as indicated by alterations of subcellular distribution of GM130, a cis/medial-Golgi marker [2].
  • On the other hand, expression of ARF1-N126I altered the subcellular localization of GM130, a cis -medial Golgi protein in skeletal-muscle fibres and myotubes, without interfering with CSHA1 targeting to either TC or developing SR [3].
