Abstract Background Simian virus 40 SV40 enters cells via an atypical caveolae-mediated endocytic pathway which delivers the virus to a new intermediary compartment the caveosome. The virus then is believed to go directly from the caveosome to the endoplasmic reticulum. Cholera toxin likewise enters via caveolae and traffics to caveosomes. But in contrast to SV40 cholera toxin is transported from caveosomes to the endoplasmic reticulum via the Golgi. For that reason and because the caveosome and Golgi may have some common markers we revisited the issue of whether SV40 might access the endoplasmic reticulum via the Golgi. Results We confirmed our earlier finding that SV40 co localizes with the Golgi marker P-COP. However we show that the virus does not co localize with the more discriminating Golgi markers golgin 97 and BODIPY-ceramide. Conclusion The caveolae-mediated SV40 entry pathway does not intersect the Golgi. SV40 is seen to co localize with P-COP because that protein is a marker for caveosomes as well as the Golgi. Moreover these results are consistent with the .
