Cell Image Library Dataset CIL:CIL_24524

This image is one from a set of 40nm thick serial sections through part of a Golgi ribbon from a normal rat kidney cell, generated using transmission electron microscopy following incubation at 15°C to block transport out of the Golgi complex. Following temperature block, large bulging domains appear on the three trans-most cisternae. The images in this set were used in 3-dimensional reconstructions of the Golgi apparatus. For more information see: Ladinsky et al. (2002) Structure of the Golgi and distribution of reporter molecules at 20°C reveals the complexity of the exit compartments, Mol Biol Cell 13:2810-2825. The other images from this serial set are included in this image group.
