Abstract
English
Intracellular communication is mediated by different pathways and signals. The ER and Golgi apparatus are communicationally connected via the COP I and II vesicles. Hereby COP I is responsible for retrograde transport from Golgi to ER. A closer look at the COP I vesicle structure releaves a heteromeric heptamer. The d-COP-subunit seems to be important for the retrieval of luminal proteins back to the ER through the KDEL receptor. In this project a strain is created to analyse the function of d-COP through a complementational assay with a human gen in yeast. The findings include the relevant part of d-COP responsible for protein retrieval and bring us one step closer to understanding the pathology of diseases.
