Abstract excerpt
The temperature-sensitive Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cell mutant DS28-6 has been previously shown to be pleiotropically defective in protein secretion. We have examined the mutant cells to determine the intracellular site of the block in secretion. By transmission electron microscopy a time-dependent disassembly of the Golgi apparatus was found under nonpermissive temperature, which resulted in the loss of the...
