Protein Modification (Golgi)

After translation on ribosomes in the cytosolic compartment all proteins are processed either in the cytosol or in the ER/Golgi system. 

ScienceDaily (Oct. 16, 2009) — A research team at the University of California, San Diego School of Medicine has provided a surprisingly simple explanation for the mechanism and features of the "Golgi apparatus" – a structure that has baffled generations of scientists. The model developed by the UC San Diego scientists suggests that the Golgi's unusual shape is a direct consequence of the way it works.
