Golgi Body Flashcards
What is modified and packaged in the golgi body?
-proteins
Structure of the golgi body/how formed?
vesicles containing polypeptides pinch off from the RER and fuse with the stack of membranes
What is pinched off from the golgi body?
-vesicles containing modified proteins
Function of the vesicles that are pinched off from the golgi body?
-carry proteins elsewhere in the cell or move and fuse with the membrane secreting the modified proteins by exocytosis
Functions of the golgi body?
-producing secretory enzymes, packages into secretory vesicles
-secreting carbohydrates for the formation of cell walls
-producing glycoprotein
-transport and store lipids
-forming lysosomes that contain digestive enzymes
