Family Adaptor complexes small subunit family
Function
The coatomer is a cytosolic protein complex that binds to dilysine motifs and reversibly associates with Golgi non-clathrin- coated vesicles, which further mediate biosynthetic protein transport from the ER, via the Golgi up to the trans Golgi network. Coatomer complex is required for budding from Golgi membranes, and is essential for the retrograde Golgi-to-ER transport of dilysine-tagged proteins. The zeta subunit may be involved in regulating the coat assembly and, hence, the rate of biosynthetic protein transport due to its association-dissociation properties with the coatomer complex.

T98 cells Glioblastoma Homo sapiens CVCL_B368
In Vivo Model
Mice were divided into two groups (10 mice per group) and anesthetized with an intraperitoneal injection (80 uL) containing ketamine HCl (25 mg/mL), xylazine (2.5 mg/mL), and 14.25% ethyl alcohol (diluted 1:3 in 0.9% NaCl). U87MG-NC and U87MG-sh-COPZ1#1 glioma cells (106 cells diluted in 10 uL PBS per animal) were injected into the right frontal lobes of each mouse using the following coordinates: 1 mm anterior and 2.5 mm lateral to the bregma, at a depth of 2 mm.

Response regulation COPZ1 knockdown also led to the increase in nuclear receptor coactivator 4 (NCOA4), resulting in the degradation of ferritin, and a subsequent increase in the intracellular levels of ferrous iron and ultimately ferroptosis.The COPZ1/NCOA4/FTH1 axis is therefore a novel therapeutic target for the treatment of human glioblastoma.
