Membrane traffic: a glitch in the Golgi matrix.
Golgins are coiled-coil proteins thought to form a matrix important for shaping and organising Golgi cisternae and directing long-range recognition events in vesicular transport. This model is brought into question by new evidence that two golgins, GM130 and golgin-84, contribute to but are not essential for protein transport and Golgi structure.
