Brefeldin a is a drug that disrupts transport from the er to the golgi apparatus. what other organelles and membranes in an animal cell would be affected by this drug?

Respuesta :

Lysosomes, transport vesicles, plasma membrane, and nuclear membranes would be also affected by the use of Brefeldin A.

Brefeldin A's effects on endosomes, lysosomes, and the trans-Golgi network (TGN) suggest a general mechanism for regulating organelle structure and membrane traffic.

Brefeldin A (BFA) is a reversible protein transport inhibitor commonly used to enhance intracellular cytokine staining signals by blocking transport processes during cell activation.

The drug causes a reversible disruption of the Golgi by releasing the vesicle coat proteins and blocking the assembly of vesicles destined to move to the next compartment.
