Abstract excerpt
It was recently demonstrated that an increase in the cellular cholesterol level leads to vesiculation of the Golgi apparatus. This vesiculation affects the entire Golgi apparatus and is a reversible process. We have now started to elucidate the mechanism behind this cholesterol-induced vesiculation of the Golgi apparatus. Transient transfection of cells with dominant negative mutant constructs of dynamin 1 and 2...
