The Golgi apparatus is a central organelle in eukaryotic cells, instrumental in processing, modifying and sorting proteins and lipids. Its dynamic architecture features discrete cisternae organised ...

Cells have extensive sets of intracellular membranes, which together compose the endomembrane system. The endomembrane system was first discovered in the late 1800s when scientist Camillo Golgi ...

The Journal of Cell Biology (JCB) is a not-for-profit publication, edited by scientists, and a leading life sciences journal. The JCB publishes papers on all aspects of cellular structure and function ...

Disabling a part of brain cells that acts as a tap to regulate the flow of proteins has been shown to cause neurodegeneration, a new study from The University of Manchester has found. The research, ...

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 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 setting ...

Scientists are reporting assembly of the first functioning prototype of an artificial Golgi organelle. That key structure inside cells helps process and package hormones, enzymes, and other substances ...

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

Galactosyltransferase, a marker for trans-Golgi cisternae in interphase cells, was localized in mitotic HeLa cells embedded in Lowicryl K4M by immunoelectron microscopy. Specific labeling was found ...
