Several prostate cancers and malignant gliomas along with a few melanomas, breast, ovarian, endometrial, testis, renal and stomach cancers displayed moderate cytoplasmic positivity, often with a dot-like pattern. Remaining cancer cells were negative.
GENE INFORMATION
Gene name
GORASP1 (HGNC Symbol)
Synonyms
FLJ23443, GOLPH5, GRASP65, P65
Description
Golgi reassembly stacking protein 1, 65kDa (HGNC Symbol)
Entrez gene summary
The Golgi complex plays a key role in the sorting and modification of proteins exported from the endoplasmic reticulum. The protein encoded by this gene is a membrane protein involved in establishing the stacked structure of the Golgi apparatus. It is a caspase-3 substrate, and cleavage of this encoded protein contributes to Golgi fragmentation in apoptosis. This encoded protein can form a complex with the Golgi matrix protein GOLGA2, and this complex binds to the vesicle docking protein p115. Alternative splicing results in multiple transcript variants of this gene. [provided by RefSeq, Jul 2013]
