Golgi Flashcards
transport of protein (general stops)
ER—> ER-golgi intermediate compartment (ERGIC) –> golgi apparatus
exocytosis
membrane insertion
or lumenal aspects of lysosomes
Vesicles
transports proteins to and from ER and golgi (and can go to other parts of the cell)
vesicle passing is mitigated by …
signals on the protein
Golgi Structure
- not contiguous
- stacks of sacks (cisternae)
- has polarity on struc and function
-Cis face recieves from ERGIC
medial cisternae
middle of the stack
cisternae are usually…
swollen at the margins, where vesicles arise and fuse
Trans face faces …
away from the RER towards cell surface
trans-golgi network recieves from the trans face
the golgi complex
assembly line for modifying and packaging lumenal and transmembrane proteins
protein modifications
medial and trans compartments
–> removing/adding/ modifying carb and lipid components
—> covalently coupling protein and lipid components attach. to mem/secretory proteins
–> some proteins polymerize in the golgi
Lipid metabolism
med/trans compart.
–>convert ceramide (a base sphingolipid) into sphingomyelin or glycolipid
sorting proteins: trans golgi network
for delivery to their final cellular destination
Mod of Glycoproteins
- poly sacc added in the ER
- golgi mod to result in variety of glycoproteins serving spec functions (Mod depend on pro structure and enzymes available)
passing through golgi stacks
2 mech:
- cisternal Maturation model
- stable cisternae model
cisternal maturation model-
the entire stacks will move from cis to trans, maturing their proteins as they move
