Co-localization with the cis-Golgi marker GM130/GOLGA2 (RRID:AB_398141) after the treatment of U-2 OS cells with brefeldin A (5 ug/ml) for 30 minutes to disrupt the ER to Golgi transport; GOLGA2 localizes together with proteins associated with the Golgi-matrix (PMID: 8557739). GORASP1 is a Golgi-matrix protein, as it co-localizes with the Golgi-matrix marker GOLGA2 after the treatment with BFA.
Co-localization with the cis-Golgi marker GM130/GOLGA2 (RRID:AB_398141) for a refined protein localization within the Golgi apparatus in U-2 OS cells. GORASP1 localizes to the Golgi apparatus, but is only detected in the cis-Golgi compartment.
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]
