Abstract
BACKGROUND: Pathological Golgi fragmentation represents a constant pre-clinical feature of many neurodegenerative diseases including amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS) but its molecular mechanisms remain hitherto unclear. RESULTS: Here, we show that the severe Golgi fragmentation in transgenic mutant SOD1(G85R) and SOD1(G93A) mouse motor neurons is associated with defective polymerization of Golgi-derived
