The Golgi apparatus structure is composed of flattened membrane-enclosed sacs called cisternae, and associated vesicles. Here we describe a variety of cell-permeant probes that can be used to distinguish the Golgi morphology in both live and fixed cells. Additionally, these probes have applications ...
(ER) derived proteins and as a sorting station for proteins directed for the plasma membrane, lysosomes and other destinations. Golgi apparatus structure visualized by standard thin sectioning techniques at the electron microscope (EM) level, that reached its apogee in the latter part of the last ...
The golgi apparatus is a membrane-bound organelle found in most cells. It is responsible for packaging proteins into vesicles prior to secretion and therefore plays a key role in the secretory pathway. In this article, we shall look at the structure and function of the golgi apparatus and its...

Learn about the Golgi Apparatus and its importance for eukaryotic cells. Discover its complex structure and its function as molecules modifier.
Gol·gi apparatus orGol·gi body(gōl′jē) A structure within many cells that is composed of a series of sacs, called vesicles, and is thought to play a role in the synthesis and transport of proteins. All organisms except bacteria have at least one Golgi apparatus in their cells. See ...

Golgi apparatus A stack of flattened vesicles that functions in the post-translational processing and sorting of proteins. The Golgi receives proteins from the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) and directs them to secretory vesicles, lysosomes or the cell's plasma membrane. The movement of the prot...
The Golgi apparatus of motor neurons (GA) is fragmented in sporadic amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), in familial ALS with SOD1 mutations, and in mice that express SOD1 G93A of familial ALS, in which it was detected months before paralysis. In paralyzed transgenic mice expressing SOD1 G93...
packaging and distribution center of the secretory pathway. This chapter provides a brief historical account of the discovery of the Golgi apparatus, a description of its unique structure and organization, and its role in glycoprotein biosynthesis, sorting and secretion. The biogenesis of the Golgi th...
