Golgicide A

• CAS: 1139889-93-2
• Catalog Number: ACM1139889932
• Category: Inhibitors
• Molecular Weight: 284.31
• Molecular Formula: C17H14F2N2
• Description: Golgicide A is a Potent, selective and reversible inhibitor of GBF1 ArfGEF. Golgicide A inhibited HSV-1 entry via beta-galactosidase reporter assay and impaired incoming virus transport to the nuclear periphery. Inhibition of GBF1 via golgicide A can result in rapid dissociation of COPI vesicle coat protein from Golgi membranes and disassembly of the Golgi and trans-Golgi network

• In Vitro Activity: The effect of GCA on toxin trafficking and on intracellular organelle morphology was examined. Immunofluoresence experiments demonstrated dramatic effects of GCA on the Golgi and TGN. Whereas the Golgi remains as a tightly organized perinuclear ribbon in untreated cells, GCA caused complete dispersal of the medial-Golgi markers giantin and the cis-Golgi marker GM130. Treatment with GCA resulted in a diffuse and punctate distribution of the medial-Golgi marker giantin. The punctate structures were in contact with Sec31-positive foci, indicative of their association with ER exit sites. GCA also caused the TGN to disperse into small vesicles that subsequently disseminated throughout the cell.; Reference: Nat Chem Biol. 2009 Mar;5(3):157-65. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/19182783/
