  2. Golgi apparatus - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_apparatus

    The Golgi apparatus (/ ˈ ɡ ɒ l dʒ i /), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. [1] Part of the endomembrane system in the cytoplasm , it packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination.

  3. Golgi tendon organ - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_tendon_organ

    The body of the Golgi tendon organ is made up of braided strands of collagen (intrafusal fasciculi) that are less compact than elsewhere in the tendon and are encapsulated. [2] The capsule is connected in series (along a single path) with a group of muscle fibers ( 10-20 fibers [ 3 ] ) at one end, and merge into the tendon proper at the other.

  4. Endomembrane system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomembrane_system

    The Golgi apparatus (also known as the Golgi body and the Golgi complex) is composed of separate sacs called cisternae. Its shape is similar to a stack of pancakes. The number of these stacks varies with the specific function of the cell. The Golgi apparatus is used by the cell for further protein modification.

  5. Golgi cell - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi_cell

    In neuroscience, Golgi cells are the most abundant inhibitory interneurons found within the granular layer of the cerebellum. [1] Golgi cells can be found in the granular layer at various layers. [2] The Golgi cell is essential for controlling the activity of the granular layer. [3] They were first identified as inhibitory in 1964. [4]

  6. Cisterna - Wikipedia

    As well as the location of the cis and trans Golgi network. The cis Golgi network is the first step in the cisternal structure of a protein being packaged, while the trans Golgi network is the last step in the cisternal structure when the vesicle is being transferred to either the lysosome, the cell surface or the secretory vesicle.

  7. Golgi - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Golgi

    Camillo Golgi (1843–1926), Italian physician and scientist after whom the following terms are named: Golgi apparatus (also called the Golgi body, Golgi complex, or dictyosome), an organelle in a eukaryotic cell; Golgi tendon organ, a proprioceptive sensory receptor organ; Golgi's method or Golgi stain, a nervous tissue staining technique

    Kerry Washington portrays Lt. Col. Charity Adams in the Netflix film. The real-life leader was born in Kittrell, N.C., on Dec. 5, 1918, and raised in Columbia, S.C.

  9. Microtubule organizing center - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microtubule_organizing_center

    Most animal cells have one MTOC during interphase, usually located near the nucleus, and generally associated closely with the Golgi apparatus.The MTOC is made up of a pair of centrioles at its center, and is surrounded by pericentriolar material (PCM) that is important for microtubule nucleation.
