New perspectives have been reached on the function of the Golgi apparatus. Scientists explain a basic difference between plant and animal cells. Cell biologists at the University of Heidelberg have ...

The Golgi apparatus, in common with other cytoplasmic organelles, must be replicated during the cell cycle. Recent studies using green fluorescent protein (GFP) fusions, suggest that this process may ...

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 ...

Proteins can be transported in either direction across a cellular organelle called the Golgi apparatus. It emerges that CDC42, a molecule that confers cell polarity, acts to control the directionality ...

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 ...

Don't know how something works? Why not try to build a copy anyway? That's the sort of crazy and amazing thinking that allowed Dr. Richard Linhardt and other researchers at the Rensselaer Polytechnic ...

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 ...

Researchers have identified that the status of the T-cell Golgi apparatus is a key indicator of performance in cancer immunotherapy approaches. A group of researchers working at the Medical University ...

The Golgi Apparatus For years the function of this cell component was a mystery. Now radioautography has clarified its role as the primary site for the packaging of secretions and the synthesis of ...
