  • Title: The role of ankyrin and spectrin in membrane transport and domain formation.
    Author: De Matteis MA, Morrow JS.
    Journal: Curr Opin Cell Biol; 1998 Aug; 10(4):542-9. PubMed ID: 9719877.
    Abstract:
    Recent discoveries reveal a Golgi-centric spectrin-ankyrin skeleton required for Golgi integrity and anterograde protein trafficking. Identification of specific functional domains in spectrin that mediate its association with motor proteins and the Golgi complex has allowed novel insights into the structure and function of the secretory pathway, and into how this process is controlled by ADP-ribosylation factor and phosphoinositides. Alternative models of Golgi spectrin function that have been recently proposed are reviewed.
