Abstract excerpt
During encystation Giardia trophozoites secrete a fibrillar extracellular matrix of glycans and cyst wall proteins on the cell surface. The cyst wall material is accumulated in encystation-specific vesicles (ESVs), specialized Golgi-like compartments generated de novo, after export from the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and before secretion. These large post-ER vesicles neither have the morphological characteristics...
