Abstract excerpt
A yeast class V myosin Myo2 transports the Golgi into the bud during its inheritance. However, the mechanism that links the Golgi to Myo2 is unknown. Here, we report that Ypt11, a Rab GTPase that reportedly interacts with Myo2, binds to Ret2, a subunit of the coatomer complex. When Ypt11 is overproduced, Ret2 and the Golgi markers, Och1 and Sft2, are accumulated in the growing bud and are lost in the mother cell....
