Golgi Antibody / Golgi apparatus protein 1 / GLG1

Part of the cellular endomembrane system, the Golgi apparatus packages proteins into membrane-bound vesicles inside the cell before the vesicles are sent to their destination. The Golgi apparatus resides at the intersection of the secretory, lysosomal, and endocytic pathways. It is of particular importance in processing proteins for secretion, containing a set of glycosylation enzymes that attach various sugar monomers to proteins as the proteins move through the apparatus. [Wiki] This antibody is useful in staining the Golgi apparatus in cell or tissue preparations and subcellular fractions.
