ER-Golgi MCSs

Nir2, CERT and OSBP coordinately function at the ER-Golgi MCSs

April 23, 2019Sima Lev Web Team Leave a Comment

Nir2, CERT and OSBP are three lipid-transfer proteins containing an FFAT motif, interact with VAP-A/B and localize to the Golgi apparatus at steady-state. Targeting of OSBP and CERT to the Golgi is mediated by their PH domains which bind PI4P… Continue Reading →

Nir2 functions at ER-Golgi MCSs

April 16, 2019Sima Lev Web Team Leave a Comment

Prof. Sima Lev’ team showed that the Nir2 protein mainly localizes to the Golgi in interphase cells, and isolated the integral ER-membrane protein VAP-B as Nir2-interacting protein. They showed that Nir2-VAP-B interaction is mediated by the FFAT (EFFDAxE) motif within… Continue Reading →
