Abstract excerpt
Inhibition of ceramide synthesis by a fungal metabolite, myriocin, leads to a rapid and specific reduction in the rate of transport of glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI)-anchored proteins to the Golgi apparatus without affecting transport of soluble or transmembrane proteins. Inhibition of cerami...
