BIOL 1090 Lecture Notes - Lecture 18: Tethering, Glycolipid, Cisterna
Document Summary
Protein is transported from er to golgi complex. Exit sites: membrane and er lumen bud off to form transport vesicles. Er-golgi intermediate compartment (ergic: region b/w er and golgi complex, transport vesicles fuse to form larger vesicles and interconnected tubules . Vesicular tubular clusters (vtcs: these then form the cis-golgi network, which gives rise to the golgi complex. Note: exit sites of er don"t have ribosomes to prevent them from moving away with a partially packaged protein: named after camillo golgi, who discovered the structure and won the nobel prize for. Structure of golgi complex doing so in 1906. In a cell, there can be a single golgi body or there can by many golgi bodies, which are referred to as dictyosomes. Functions of golgi complex processing plant of cell synthesis of complex polysaccharides: modification of proteins and lipids, glycosylation (glycoproteins and glycolipids, proteolytic modification transport and sorting of proteins.
