Golgin-160 is a member of the coiled-coil family of golgin proteins, which are proposed to regulate the structure of the Golgi complex. The C-terminal two-thirds of golgin-160 is predicted to form a coiled-coil domain and the N-terminal head domain contains several putative binding domains, regulatory motifs and phosphorylation sites. Recently, it has been demonstrated that caspase-dependent cleavage of the golgin-160 head domain occurs rapidly after induction of apoptosis. The role of golgin-160 phosphorylation and the functional implications for Golgi structure have not been defined. In this study, we investigated the kinase(s) responsible for phosphorylation of golgin-160. Signaling through the small G-protein Rac and mixed-lineage-kinase-3 (MLK3) resulted in increased phosphorylation of golgin-160. The intracellular distribution of MLK3 overlapped with that of golgin-160 and the two proteins could be co-immunoprecipitated. In vitro kinase assays demonstrated that MLK3 directly phosphorylates golgin-160 in the N-terminal head region between residues 96 and 259. Overexpression of MLK3 caused an enhanced caspase-dependent cleavage of golgin-160 at Asp139. Golgin-160 is the first non-kinase substrate of MLK3 identified, and phosphorylation by MLK3 might modulate cleavage of golgin-160 during apoptosis.
