EGF-mediated Golgi dynamics and cell migration require CARP2.

In mammalian cells, the Golgi exists in ribbon architecture-individual stacks laterally linked to each other by tubular structures. Golgi architecture changes dynamically to cater to cellular needs. Loss of architecture is linked with pathological conditions like cancer and neurodegeneration.

TLR-mediated aggresome-like induced structures comprise antimicrobial peptides and attenuate intracellular bacterial survival.

Immune cells employ diverse mechanisms for host defense. Macrophages, in response to TLR activation, assemble aggresome-like induced structures (ALIS). Our group has shown TLR4-signaling transcriptionally upregulates p62/sequestome1, which assembles ALIS.

Quantification of golgi dispersal and classification using machine learning models.

The Golgi body is a critical organelle in eukaryotic cells responsible for processing and modifying proteins and lipids. Under certain conditions, such as stress, disease, or ageing, the Golgi structure alters. Therefore, understanding the mechanisms that regulate Golgi dispersion has significant research contributions to identifying disease.
