Golgi compartments enable controlled biomolecular assembly using promiscuous enzymes
The synthesis of eukaryotic glycans – branched sugar oligomers attached to cell-surface proteins and lipids – is organized like a factory assembly line. Specific enzymes within successive compartments of the Golgi apparatus determine where new monomer building blocks are linked to the growing oligom...
