The Golgi apparatus (iː), also known as the Golgi complex, Golgi body, or simply the Golgi, is an organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. It was identified in 1897 by the Italian physician Camillo Golgi and named after him in 1898. Part of the cellular endomembrane system, the Golgi apparatus packages proteins inside the cell before they are se...

This is an extension of the endoplasmic reticulum, seemingly responsible for directing newly formed proteins back into the cytoplasm. It does this by forming them into small vesicles known as secretory granules which can then be passed in through the reticular membrane by a process known as endocyto

(gol´je) a complex cellular organelle consisting mainly of a number of flattened sacs (cisternae) and associated vesicles, which is involved in the synthesis of glycoproteins, lipoproteins, membrane-bound proteins, and lysosomal enzymes. The sacs form primary lysosomes and secretory vacuoles. Called also Golgi com...

Also known as the Golgi body, Golgi vesicles; in plants, the dictyosome; in flagellate protozoa, the parabasal body. Intracellular stack of membrane-bounded vesicles in which glycosylation and packaging of secreted proteins takes place; part of the GERL complex. Vesicles from endoplasmic reticulum fuse with the cis -Golgi region (the inner concave face) and progress through the vesicular stack to the trans-Golgi, whence they move towards the plasma membrane or lysosomes.
