The Golgi apparatus has a structure that is made up of cisternae, which are flattened stacks of membrane usually found in a series of five to eight, or until they fill up the cytoplasm. These cisternae help proteins and cytoplasmic components biochemically react and travel between different parts of the Cell.

How the proteins and vesicles pass through the Golgi apparatus structure is clearly represented and understood.

According to the vesicular transport model, there are a variety of compartments located between the cis, essentially the beginning of the Golgi apparatus, and the trans, the end. These compartments shuttle along the macromolecules from section to section using membrane-bound carriers. The cisternal maturation model states that the vesicles fuse to each other at the cis face of the Golgi apparatus and are essentially pushed along as new vesicles fuse together behind them.

Origin of the name of Golgi apparatus?

Camillo Golgi, an Italian physician, was studying the nervous system, in 1897, when he discovered a unique cellular structure in a sample under his light microscope. Upon further investigation, he named this structure the internal reticular apparatus. In 1898, he publicly announced his discovery, and the structure was named after him, becoming universally known as the Golgi apparatus.
