Application

Golgicide A has been used as an inhibitor in retrotransposition assays and as an inhibitor of Golgi-specific brefeldin A-resistance guanine nucleotide exchange factor 1 protein (GBF1) in HeLa cells.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Golgicide A is a potent, highly specific, reversible inhibitor of the cis-Golgi ArfGEF GBF1. Arf proteins are members of the Ras superfamily of small guanosine triphosphatases (GTPases) that mediate vesicular transport. Golgicide A binds within an interfacial cleft formed between Arf1 and the GBF1 Sec7 domain. Golgicide A is a unique and powerful tool for further elucidating the mechanisms underlying assembly and transport within the Golgi, comparable to the use of dynasore for studying the dynamics of dynamin-mediated clathrin coat formation.

RNA viruses induce specialized membranous structures for use in genome replication. These structures are often referred to as replication organelles (ROs). ROs exhibit distinct lipid composition relative to other cellular membranes. In many picornaviruses, phosphatidylinositol-4-phosphate (PI4P) is a marker of

Cyclic nucleotides, including cyclic AMP (cAMP), cyclic GMP (cGMP) and cyclic ADP-ribose, have been extensively studied as second messengers of intracellular events initiated by activation of GPCRs. cAMP modifies cell function in all eukaryotic cells, principally through the activation of cAMP-dependent protein kinase (PKA), but also through cAMP-gated ion channels and guanine nucleotide exchange factors directly activated by cAMP.

Our team of scientists has experience in all areas of research including Life Science, Material Science, Chemical Synthesis, Chromatography, Analytical and many others.
