Abstract

The Golgi apparatus in mammalian cells disassembles into several thousand vesicles as cells enter M-phase. Disassembly is dependent on the action of cdc2-kinase and at least two pathways contribute to the fragmentation: One involves the budding of COP-coated vesicles from Golgi cisternae with concomitant inhibition of fusion with their target membranes, the other is a less well characterised COP-independent pathway. During telophase, the Golgi fragments reassemble and fuse into a fully functional Golgi stack, using at least two distinct fusion pathways. The morphological changes of the Golgi apparatus during M-phase offer an ideal system to study how cellular organelles are generated and how their structure is maintained during interphase.
