Abstract
GOLPH3 is the first example of an oncogene that functions in secretory trafficking at the Golgi. The discovery of GOLPH3's roles in both cancer and Golgi trafficking raises questions about how GOLPH3 and the Golgi contribute to cancer. Our recent investigation of the regulation of GOLPH3 revealed a surprising response by the Golgi upon DNA damage that is mediated by DNA-PK and GOLPH3. These results provide new insight into the DNA damage response with important implications for understanding the cellular response to standard cancer therapeutic agents.
