Researchers at Yale have discovered that, contrary to previous beliefs, the Golgi apparatus is an organelle that exists independently of the larger endoplasmic reticulum and is a crucial component of ...

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 ...

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, ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract When developing cotyledons of Phaseolus vulgaris L. were labeled with [3H]fucose, fucose-labeled phytohemagglutinin (PHA) was found in ...

The role of the Golgi apparatus in wall formation of vegetative cells of a marine chrysophyte, Pleurochrysis scherffelii, is described. Wall fragments are synthesized within the cisternae of the Golgi ...

At the Institut Curie, CNRS researchers, in collaboration with a group at the University of Seville, have just shown that the protein GMAP-210 is the "foreman" essential to maintenance of the ...

Neurons are the cells that constitute neural circuits and use chemicals and electricity to receive and send messages that allow the body to do everything, including thinking, sensing, moving, and more ...

In eukaryotic cells, many new proteins begin life in an organelle known as the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). From there, they are taken to the side of the Golgi apparatus (Fig. 1) facing the ER (the cis ...

In rabbits starved for 48 hr. with free access to water, the Golgi apparatus as shown by the Aoyama technique, as modified by me, is in the form of a compact reticulum lying close to the luminal pole ...
