Abstract
Background
Golgi apparatus (GA) is assembled as a crescent-like ribbon in mammalian cells under immunofluorescence microscope without knowing the sha** mechanisms. It is estimated that roughly 1/5 of the genes encoding kinases or phosphatases in human genome participate in the assembly of Golgi ribbon, reflecting protein modifications play major roles in building Golgi ribbon.
Methods
To explore how Golgi ribbon is shaped as a crescent-like structure under the guidance of protein modifications, we identified a protein complex containing the scaffold proteins Ajuba, two known GA regulators including the protein kinase Aurora-A and the protein arginine methyltransferase PRMT5, and the common substrate of Aurora-A and PRMT5, HURP. Mutual modifications and activation of PRMT5 and Aurora-A in the complex leads to methylation and in turn phosphorylation of HURP, thereby producing HURP p725. The HURP p725 localizes to GA vicinity and its distribution pattern looks like GA morphology. Correlation study of the HURP p725 statuses and GA structure, site-directed mutagenesis and knockdown-rescue experiments were employed to identify the modified HURP as a key regulator assembling GA as a crescent ribbon.
Results
The cells containing no or extended distribution of HURP p725 have dispersed GA membranes or longer GA. Knockdown of HURP fragmentized GA and HURP wild type could, while its phosphorylation deficiency mutant 725A could not, restore crescent Golgi ribbon in HURP depleted cells, collectively indicating a crescent GA-constructing activity of HURP p725. HURP p725 is transported, by GA membrane-associated ARF1, Dynein and its cargo adaptor Golgin-160, to cell center where HURP p725 forms crescent fibers, binds and stabilizes Golgi assembly factors (GAFs) including TRIP11, GRASP65 and GM130, thereby dictating the formation of crescent Golgi ribbon at nuclear periphery.
Conclusions
The Ajuba/PRMT5/Aurora-A complex integrates the signals of protein methylation and phosphorylation to HURP, and the HURP p725 organizes GA by stabilizing and recruiting GAFs to its crescent-like structure, therefore sha** GA as a crescent ribbon. Therefore, the HURP p725 fiber serves a template to construct GA according to its shape.

Background
The Golgi apparatus (GA) in mammalian cells forms a continuous ribbon of laterally interconnected stacks of flat cisternae. The construction of GA architecture relies on posttranslational modifications of soluble Golgi assembly factors (GAFs) and is subjected to dynamic changes along a cell cycle [2]. At G2 phase, phosphorylation-induced inactivation of GRASP65 [7] or GRASP55 [15], two GAFs engaged in stacking and linking cis- and trans-Golgi respectively, leads to the unlinking of the inter-connected stacks of the organelle. At early mitosis, further phosphorylation of the two GRASPs causes GA unstacking [41, The data used to support the findings of this study are included within the article.
