Golgi reassembly-stacking protein of 55 k Da (GRASP55) also known as golgi reassembly-stacking protein 2 (GORASP2) is a protein that in humans is encoded by the GORASP2 gene. [5] [6] It was identified by its homology with GRASP65 and the protein's amino acid sequence was determined by analysis of a molecular clone of its complementary DNA. [5] The first (N-terminus) 212 amino acid residues of GRASP55 are highly homologous to those of GRASP65, but the remainder of the 454 amino acid residues are highly diverged from GRASP65. [5] The conserved region is known as the GRASP domain, and it is conserved among GRASPs of a wide variety of eukaryotes, but not plants. [6] [7] The C-terminus portion of the molecule is called the SPR domain (serine, proline-rich). [7] GRASP55 is more closely related to homologues in other species, suggesting that GRASP55 is ancestral to GRASP65. [7] GRASP55 is found associated with the medial and trans cisternae of the Golgi apparatus. [7]

GRASP55 is involved in establishing the structure of the Golgi apparatus. [7] [6] It is a peripheral membrane protein located on the Golgi cisterna, and it can bind to another GRASP55 located on an adjacent cisterna through the GRASP domain, thus linking the cisternae together through multiple protein–protein interactions. [7] [8]

GRASP55 is attached to the membrane in two ways; it is myristylated, which attaches it directly to the lipid bilayer; it is also bound indirectly by binding to golgin-45, which binds to a Rab protein, which itself is lipidated and thus anchored to the membrane. [7]

The structure of the Golgi is disrupted during mitosis, and phosphorylation of the SPR domains of GRASP55 and GRASP65 regulate that disruption, [9] [8] GRASP55 may also be involved in forming Golgi ribbons, but the evidence is mixed. [7] [9]

Other interactions

GRASP55 has been shown to interact with TGF alpha, [10] TMED2 [10] and GOLGA2. [5] [10] [11]

A cisterna are all of the membrane-bound sacs that could be found in both the Golgi apparatus and in the Endoplasmic Reticulum. Cisterna are an integral part of the packaging and modification processes of proteins occurring in the Golgi. It is the flattened sac on the branch of the Endoplasmic Reticulum and the curved sac on the branch of the Golgi apparatus. The proteins begin on the cis side of the Golgi and exit on the trans side. Throughout their journey in the cisterna, the proteins are packaged and are modified for transport throughout the cell. The number of cisterna in the Golgi stack is dependent on the organism and cell type. The structure, composition, and function of each of the cisternae may be different inside the Golgi stack. These different variations of Golgi cisternae are categorized into 3 groups; cis golgi network, medial, and trans Golgi network. The cis Golgi network is the first step in the cisternal structure of a protein being packaged, while the trans Golgi network is the last step in the cisternal structure when the vesicle is being transferred to either the lysosome, the cell surface or the secretory vesicle. The cisternae are shaped by the cytoskeleton of the cell through a lipid bilayer. Post-translational modifications such as glycosylation, phosphorylation and cleavage occur in the Golgi and as proteins travel through it, they go through the cisternae, which allows functional ion channels to be created due to these modifications. Each class of cisternae contains various enzymes used in protein modifications. These enzymes help the Golgi in glycosylation and phosphorylation of proteins, as well as mediate signal modifications to direct proteins to their final destination. Defects in the cisternal enzymes can cause congenital defects including some forms of muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, cancer, and diabetes.

Golgi matrix

The Golgi matrix is a collection of proteins involved in the structure and function of the Golgi apparatus. The matrix was first isolated in 1994 as an amorphous collection of 12 proteins that remained associated together in the presence of detergent and 150 mM NaCl. Treatment with a protease enzyme removed the matrix, which confirmed the importance of proteins for the matrix structure. Modern freeze etch electron microscopy (EM) clearly shows a mesh connecting Golgi cisternae and associated vesicles. Further support for the existence of a matrix comes from EM images showing that ribosomes are excluded from regions between and near Golgi cisternae.
