Giantin also known as Giantin Golgi or Giantin protein is a large coiled-coil protein with a molecular mass of approximately 376 kDa. It localizes primarily to the cis/medial region of the Golgi apparatus serving as a Golgi marker. As a part of the structural framework of the Golgi it plays an important role in maintaining the integrity and architecture of the Golgi stacks. Giantin is highly expressed in a variety of cell types including those in the liver kidney and brain making it an important target in cell biology studies.
The Giantin protein functions as a scaffold that supports the Golgi apparatus’s dynamic organization. It is part of a larger complex that influences vesicular trafficking within the cell. This ability to interact with various vesicle coat proteins points to its important role in the sorting and transport of proteins and lipids through the secretory pathway. Besides Giantin is involved in the assembly of the Golgi matrix and influences its disassembly during mitosis suggesting a significant involvement in cell proliferation and division.
Giantin helps regulate intracellular transport pathways connecting the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Golgi as well as intra-Golgi trafficking. It interfaces with other significant proteins such as GM130 and GRASP65 which are involved in Golgi dynamics and structure. This protein also participates in the coordination of the secretory pathway important for the modification and sorting of proteins destined for the cell surface or lysosomes.
Giantin has been linked to conditions involving impaired protein glycosylation and Golgi-related transport defects. Notably defects in Giantin function are associated with connective tissue disorders and certain forms of Golgi dysfunctions like Congenital Disorders of Glycosylation (CDG). Additionally Giantin’s interactions with proteins such as Sec23/24 and Bet3 which are cargo-binding components of the COPII vesicle coat connect its functional disruption to diseases characterized by impaired vesicular trafficking and cellular secretion malfunctions.

ab37266 staining Giantin in HeLa cells. The cells were fixed with 4% paraformaldehyde (10 min), permeabilized with 0.1% PBS-Triton X-100 for 5 minutes and then blocked with 1% BSA/10% normal goat serum/0.3M glycine in 0.1%PBS-Tween for 1h. The cells were then incubated overnight at 4°C with ab37266 at 5µg/ml and Anti-beta Tubulin antibody - Loading Control ab6046, Rabbit polyclonal to beta Tubulin - Loading Control. Cells were then incubated with Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed ab150117, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Mouse IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 488) preadsorbed at 1/1000 dilution (shown in green) and Goat Anti-Rabbit IgG H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) ab150080, Goat polyclonal Secondary Antibody to Rabbit IgG - H&L (Alexa Fluor® 594) at 1/1000 dilution (shown in pseudocolour red). Nuclear DNA was labelled with DAPI (shown in blue).
Also suitable in cells fixed with 100% methanol (5 min).
Image was acquired with a high-content analyser (Operetta CLS, Perkin Elmer) and a maximum intensity projection of confocal sections is shown.
ICC/IF image of ab37266 stained Hek293 cells. The cells were 4% paraformaldehyde fixed (10 min) and then incubated in 1%BSA / 10% normal goat serum / 0.3M glycine in 0.1% PBS-Tween for 1h to permeabilise the cells and block non-specific protein-protein interactions. The cells were then incubated with the antibody (ab37266, 10µg/ml) overnight at +4°C. The secondary antibody (green) was Goat Anti-Mouse IgG H&L (DyLight® 488) preadsorbed ab96879, DyLight® 488 goat anti-mouse IgG (H+L) used at a 1/250 dilution for 1h.DAPI was used to stain the cell nuclei (blue) at a concentration of 1.43µM.
ab37266 (1/200) staining Giantin in assynchronous HeLa cells (green). Cells were fixed in Methanol and counterstained with DAPI (red) in order to highlight the nucleus. Please refer to Abreview for further experimental details.
