Category:GO:0045053 ! protein retention in Golgi apparatus

name: protein retention in Golgi apparatus
namespace: biological_process
def: "The retention of proteins within the Golgi apparatus. Golgi-localized carbohydrate-modifying enzymes have a short N-terminal domain that faces the cytosol, a single transmembrane alpha helix, and a large C-terminal domain that faces the Golgi lumen and that contains the catalytic site. How the membrane-spanning alpha helix in a Golgi enzyme causes its localization and prevents its movement to the plasma membrane is not known." [ISBN:0716731363]
