In animals and fungi, dimerization is crucial for targeting GRIP domain proteins to the Golgi apparatus. Only one gene in the Arabidopsis genome, AtGRIP, codes for a GRIP domain protein. It remains unclear whether AtGRIP has properties similar to those of GRIP domain proteins. In this study, western blot and yeast two-hybrid analyses indicated that AtGRIPs could form a parallel homodimer. In addition, yeast two-hybrid analysis indicated that AtGRIPaa711–753, AtGRIPaa711–766 and AtGRIPaa711–776 did not interact with themselves, but the intact GRIP domain with the AtGRIP C-terminus did. Confocal microscopy showed that only an intact GRIP domain with an AtGRIP C-terminus could localize to the Golgi stacks in Arabidopsis leaf protoplasts. A BLAST analysis showed that the C-terminus of GRIP proteins was conserved in the plant kingdom. Mutagenesis and yeast two-hybrid analyses showed that the L742 of AtGRIP contributed to dimerization and was crucial for Golgi localization. These results indicate that the C-terminus of GRIP proteins is essential for self-association and for targeting of Golgi stacks in plant cells. We suggest that several properties of GRIP proteins differ between plant and animal cells.
