1. Which Golgi face receives cargo from the ERGIC and is also called the CGN face?
2. Which cytoskeletal elements help stabilize the organization of Golgi cisternae?
3. What is the main structural unit of the Golgi apparatus composed of a stack of curved membrane-bound sacs separated by hyaloplasmic bands?
Golgi apparatus regions — key?
Cis, medial, trans; each has distinct functions.
Cis vs trans faces — difference?
Cis receives ER cargo; trans sorts and ships it out.
Golgi apparatus structure
Stacked membranes near nucleus that process proteins.
Dictyosome composition
Multiple sacs separated by hyaloplasmic bands.
Hyaloplasmic band
Space between Golgi sacs.
Golgi functions
Glycosylation and protein processing.
