Overview of Gene Research
GOLPH3, short for Golgi phosphoprotein 3, is a peripheral membrane protein. It binds specifically to phosphatidylinositol(4)phosphate [PtdIns(4)P] at the Golgi, forming a complex with myosin18A (MYO18A) which binds F-actin. This complex is crucial for vesicle trafficking from the Golgi to the plasma membrane. GOLPH3 is also involved in maintaining Golgi ribbon structure, Golgi glycosylation, and mitochondrial cardiolipin production. It has been linked to the DNA damage response signalling pathway [1,2,3,4,5,6].

The gene encoding GOLPH3 is often amplified in different solid tumours such as melanoma, lung, breast, glioma, and colorectal cancer. Overexpression of GOLPH3 is associated with poor prognosis in multiple tumour types. In Drosophila, RNAi-mediated knockdown of dGOLPH3 reduces wing and eye size, indicating its role in organ growth. Also, in colorectal cancer cells, knockdown of GOLPH3 potentiates ferroptosis, suggesting it as a negative regulator of ferroptosis [3,7,8].

In conclusion, GOLPH3 is essential for multiple cellular functions including vesicle trafficking, Golgi-related processes, and organ growth. Its dysregulation is strongly associated with cancer, and studies using genetic models like RNAi in Drosophila and knockdown in cancer cell lines have revealed its role in tumorigenesis and other disease-related processes such as ferroptosis in colorectal cancer.
