Our cells carry out hundreds of thousands of important functions every day, all of which are carefully orchestrated at a ...

The Golgi apparatus is central to the transport and modification of proteins in eukaryotic cells. Typically textbooks illustrate the Golgi as resembling a stack of pita bread. However, this ...

The Golgi body (or Golgi complex, apparatus), and Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) are both organelles found in the majority of eukaryotic cells. They are very closely associated and show both ...

Integrating the pleomorphic membranes of the intermediate compartment (IC) into the array of Golgi cisternae is a crucial step in membrane transport, but it is poorly understood. To gain insight ...

Researchers report that the Golgi ribbon, an organelle structure previously thought to be exclusive to vertebrates, is also present in animal taxa, including mollusks, earthworms, and sea urchins ...

The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts and packages proteins to be sent to their final destinations, whether that's within or outside of the cell. It's a core function, but little studied in the ...

How Golgi stress affects T-cells' tumor-fighting ability Date: November 22, 2024 Source: Medical University of South Carolina Summary: Researchers investigating ways to reduce exhaustion in cancer ...

GOLGI APPARATUS The Golgi apparatus, shown here in an illustration, has a famous stack-of-pancakes structure that is caused by three molecules pulling on its edges, according to new research.

Golgi fragmentation occurs in neurons of patients with Alzheimer's disease (AD), but the underlying molecular mechanism causing the defects and the subsequent effects on disease development ...

They traveled directly to the Golgi apparatus, reaching their target much more quickly than endogenous opioids got into endosomes, taking only 20 seconds compared to over a minute. This time ...
