Structure & Function
At various locations within the cytoplasm, flattened stacks of membranes called Golgi bodies occur. The Golgi Complex is a smooth, concave membranous structure located near the middle of the cell. The proteins and lipids that are made in the rough and smooth ER are transported through the channels of the ER into the Golgi Complex. Once inside the Golgi Complex, many of those transported molecules are modified by having short sugar chains attached to them, forming glycoproteins, which consists of a polysaccharide complexed to a protein, and glycolipids, consisting of a polysaccharide bound to a lipid. The glycoproteins and glycolipids collect at the ends of Golgi bodies in flattened stacked membrane folds called cisternae. The cisternae then push together cutting off small membrane-bounded transport vesicles containing the glycoprotein and glycolipid molecules. The vesicles then move to other locations of the cell, distributing the newly synthesized molecules within them to their appropriate destinations.
