GOLGA1
Description
The GOLGA1 (golgin A1) is a protein-coding gene located on chromosome 9.
Golgin subfamily A member 1 is a protein encoded by the GOLGA1 gene in humans. It is involved in the Golgi apparatus, a cellular organelle responsible for protein and lipid modification and transport. The Golgi is a series of stacked membrane sacs, and its interaction with microtubules is crucial for reorganizing after cell division. Golgin-97 is associated with Sjogren's syndrome, an autoimmune disorder. It interacts with ARL1, another protein involved in cellular processes.
GOLGA1 is also known as golgin-97.
