Abstract

The steady-state localization of Golgi-resident glycosylation Enzymes in the Golgi apparatus depends on a balance between anterograde and retrograde transport. Using the Retention Using Selective Hooks (RUSH) assay and high-content screening, we identified small molecules that perturb the localization of Mannosidase II (ManII) used as a model cargo for Golgi resident Enzymes. In particular, we found that two compounds known as EGFR tyrosine kinase inhibitors, namely BML-265 and Tyrphostin AG1478 disrupt Golgi integrity and abolish secretory protein transport of diverse cargos, thus inducing brefeldin A-like effects. Interestingly, BML-265 and Tyrphostin AG1478 affect Golgi integrity and transport in human cells but not in rodent cells. The effects of BML-265 are reversible since Golgi integrity and protein transport are quickly restored upon washout of the compounds. BML-265 and Tyrphostin AG1478 do not lead to endosomal tubulation suggesting that, contrary to brefeldin A, they do not target the trans-Golgi ARF GEF BIG1 and BIG2. They quickly induce COPI dissociation from Golgi membranes suggesting that, in addition to EGFR kinase, the cis-Golgi ARF GEF GBF1 might also be a target of these molecules. Accordingly, overexpression of GBF1 prevents the effects of BML-265 and Tyrphostin AG1478 on Golgi integrity.
