IT has become customary in studies of the nerve cell by electron microscopy to apply the term ‘Golgi apparatus’ to appearances suggesting membranes, granules, or vacuoles 1. In size, general ...

IT was pointed out previously that in the unstained living human spermatid the Golgi apparatus is sometimes discernible with bright-ground illumination, as an area slightly differing in refractive ...

Our understanding of the biological cell has come a long way since Robert Hooke first saw it under the microscope in 1665, and most of this rapid progress has been in the past 150 years. Before then, ...

Researchers have provided a surprisingly simple explanation for the mechanism and features of the "Golgi apparatus" -- a structure that has baffled generations of scientists. The new model developed ...

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 ...

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 ...

A surprisingly simple explanation for the mechanism and features of the Golgi apparatus – a structure that has baffled generations of scientists has been provided by a research team A surprisingly ...

This is a preview. Log in through your library . Abstract Adult vertebrate retinal cells (rod and cones) continuously synthesize membrane proteins and transport them to the organelle specialized for ...

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 similarities ...
