Best Answer

yes

It is not associated with synthesis. It is associated with modification and transportation

How does the dna message get to the site of protein synthesis?

Messenger RNA or simply mRNA. It is released from the nucleus into the Golgi complex for use by Ribsosomes


Is Golgi complex - production of energy?

No, the Golgi is a place of protein modification, shipping of proteins in vesicle to where they are needed in the dell and outside the cell and the synthesis of the lysosomes. Energy is produced in the mitochondria.


Does the Golgi body play a major role in protein synthesis?

No. The Golgi bodies do not have a role. The main organelles involed in protein synthesis are the nucleolis, ribosomes, and mitochondria.


When the Golgi complex finish where do the proteins go?

The ER and Golgi complex serves a place for protein maturation. Polypeptide chain after synthesis undergoes folding events and post translation modification such as acylation, glycoscylation. Golgi vesicles secrete the protein to extracellular space if the proteins is a secretory proteins. It all depends on the destination signal in the proteins.


Is a Golgi complex an organelle?

The Golgi complex is an organelle for the modification of proteins, shipment of said proteins to where needed and the site of lysosome synthesis to mention a few of the Golgi's duties.


Would you please Compare and contrast the functions of the endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi complex?

The endoplasmic reticulum and the Golgi Complex (apparatus) are alike because they both handle protein. They are different because the er or the endoplasmic reticulum makes the protein and the Golgi complex packages and distributes the protein.


What can proteins made on ribosomes be further modified within?

Proteins made on ribosomes may be further modified within the golgi complex. If a toxin, such as bacterial toxin, destroys ribosomes but protein synthesis will be affected first.


What two organelles produce protein?

The two organelles that produce protein are the ribosomes and the rough endoplasmic reticulum. The ribosomes manufacture proteins for the cell through protein synthesis. The rough endoplasmic reticulum produces proteins here that are often secreted by the cell and carried by the vesicles to the Golgi apparatus.


Why does one kind of cell have a prominent Golgi complex while another kind of cell appers to lack this organelle?

Golgi complex package protein and export. Not all organelle require protein. where as the one that has prominent Golgi complex is located where it requires a lot of protein secretion like glands etc.


What makes the Golgi complex important?

It packages and exports protein.
