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 ...

Our cells have specialized parts called organelles, and scientists have learned more about one of them, the Golgi apparatus. It is made up of a series of pouches, and because it is responsible for ...

The cell is a miniature factory full of "machines" each with its own precise role to play: the endoplasmic reticulum(1) produces the linchpins of the cell, proteins. The Golgi apparatus (see box ...

Researchers investigating ways to reduce exhaustion in cancer-fighting T-cells found that the Golgi apparatus can be used as a simple marker -- more Golgi means a more robust cell.

The Golgi apparatus sorts and modifies cell products such as hormones, growth factors and digestive enzymes, and sends them to their final destinations within the cell.

Our cells carry out hundreds of thousands of important functions every day, all of which are carefully orchestrated at a microscopic scale. However, the precise mechanisms that influence the luminal ...

In the first few days of life, the Golgi apparatus in spiny stellate cells were apically polarized during days 1 through 3 after birth but ended up laterally polarized toward the barrel center by ...

Working with cells grown in the lab, Johns Hopkins researchers have identified a biochemical pathway that allows a structure within cells, called the Golgi apparatus, to combat stress caused by ...

Now researchers have developed the first working artificial prototype of an “organ” of a human cell—the Golgi apparatus. Made up of a network of sacs piled together like a stack of pancakes, ...

THE interesting letter of Prof. Bose, in NATURE of Dec. 3, on the Golgi apparatus of plant cells, may serve us as reason for discussing shortly the present position of our knowledge of this branch ...

In the first few days of life, the Golgi apparatus in spiny stellate cells were apically polarized during days 1 through 3 after birth but ended up laterally polarized toward the barrel center by ...

MEK1, a gene product that regulates cell growth and differentiation, also plays an important role in Golgi breakdown during the cell cycle. We have recently shown that polo-like kinase (Plk3) is ...
