The Cis Face of the Golgi Complex is Most Directly

Question

The cis face of the Golgi complex is most directly involved in which process?
A) Synthesizing proteins
B) Accepting vesicles from the ER
C) Packaging molecules in vesicles
D) Transporting molecules out of the Golgi
E) Catalyzing the efficient folding of proteins

Accepted Answer

The cis face of the Golgi complex is primarily involved in accepting vesicles that contain proteins and lipids from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER). These vesicles fuse with the Golgi membrane and release their contents into the lumen of the Golgi apparatus for further processing and modification.
