Decoupling polarization of the Golgi apparatus and GM1 in the plasma membrane.

Cell polarization is a process of coordinated cellular rearrangements that prepare the cell for migration. GM1 is synthesized in the Golgi apparatus and localized in membrane microdomains that appear at the leading edge of polarized cells, but the mechanism by which GM1 accumulates asymmetrically is...

description Cell polarization is a process of coordinated cellular rearrangements that prepare the cell for migration.
