| Abstract | Brefeldin A (BFA) causes a block in the secretory system of eukaryotic cells by inhibiting vesicle formation at the Golgi apparatus. Although this toxin has been used in many studies, its effects on plant cells are still shrouded in controversy. We have reinvestigated the early responses of plant cells to BFA with novel tools, namely, tobacco Bright Yellow 2 (BY-2) suspension-cultured cells expressing an in vivo green fluorescent protein–Golgi marker, electron microscopy of high-pressure frozen/freeze-substituted cells, and antisera against Atγ-COP, a component of COPI coats, and AtArf1, the GTPase necessary for COPI coat assembly. The first effect of 10 μg/mL BFA on BY-2 cells was to induce in <5 min the complete loss of vesicle-forming Atγ-COP from Golgi cisternae. During the subsequent 15 to 20 min, this block in Golgi-based vesicle formation led to a series of sequential changes in Golgi architecture, the loss of distinct Golgi stacks, and the formation of an endoplasmic reticulum (ER)–Golgi hybrid compartment with stacked domains. These secondary effects appear to depend in part on stabilizing intercisternal filaments and include the continued maturation of cis- and medial cisternae into trans-Golgi cisternae, as predicted by the cisternal progression model, the shedding of trans-Golgi network cisternae, the fusion of individual Golgi cisternae with the ER, and the formation of large ER-Golgi hybrid stacks. Prolonged exposure of the BY-2 cells to BFA led to the transformation of the ER-Golgi hybrid compartment into a sponge-like structure that does not resemble normal ER. Thus, although the initial effects of BFA on plant cells are the same as those described for mammalian cells, the secondary and tertiary effects have drastically different morphological manifestations. These results indicate that, despite a number of similarities in the trafficking machinery with other eukaryotes, there are fundamental differences in the functional architecture and properties of the plant Golgi apparatus that are the cause for the unique responses of the plant secretory pathway to BFA. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
