Myosin VI controls localization of golgi satellites at active presynaptic boutons.

ABSTRACT: Neurons, as long-lived non-dividing cells with complex morphology, depend on a highly elaborate secretory trafficking system which enables a constant turnover of proteins and membranes. Previously, it was shown that simplified, Golgi-related structures called Golgi satellites (GS) are present in the dendrites of primary hippocampal neurons. These organelles are distinct from the somatic Golgi complex and are involved in de novo glycosylation and local forward trafficking of membrane proteins. However, the question of whether GS are also targeted to the axons of principal neurons remained unanswered. In this study, we investigated the subcellular distribution of GS in adult hippocampal neurons. Our findings showed that GS are present all along the axon, extending to the distal tips of the g
