Description

Figure 208 from Chapter 6 (Golgi Apparatus) of 'The Cell, 2nd Ed.' by Don W. Fawcett M.D. Golgi apparatus and associated organelles in a rat liver hepatocyte. The star indicates a region of continuity between a budding vesicle and the Golgi stack; arrows point to other lipoprotein particles and associated vesicles in the innermost cistern. Image by Robert Bolender. A PDF copy of the accompanying chapter is available on the ASCB's BioEDUCATE website.
