Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

Any process by which a substance or cellular entity, such as a protein complex or organelle, is maintained in a specific location within, or in the membrane of, a cell, and is prevented from moving elsewhere. A process by which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a location within an organelle. A process by which a protein is transported to, or maintained in, a location within the Golgi apparatus. 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. Any process by which a protein is maintained in a specific location within, or in the membrane of, a cell, and is prevented from moving elsewhere. Any process by which a protein is maintained in a location and prevented from moving elsewhere. These include sequestration, stabilization to prevent transport elsewhere and the active retrieval of proteins that do move away.
