Overexpression of an ADP-ribosylation Factor-Guanine Nucleotide Exchange Factor, BIG2, Uncouples Brefeldin A-induced Adaptor Protein-1 Coat Dissociation and Membrane Tubulation

BIG2 is a guanine nucleotide exchange factor (GEF) for the ADP-ribosylation factor (ARF) family of small GTPases, which regulate membrane association of COPI and adaptor protein (AP)-1 coat protein complexes. A fungal metabolite, brefeldin A (BFA), inhibits ARF-GEFs and leads to redistribution of co...
