Geldanamycin Enhances Retrograde Transport of Shiga Toxin in HEp-2 Cells.
PLoS ONE, 2015 The heat shock protein 90 (Hsp90) inhibitor geldanamycin (GA) has been shown to alter endosomal sorting, diverting cargo destined for the recycling pathway into the lysosomal pathway. Here we investigated whether GA also affects the sorting of cargo into
