Golgi Movie I*
Slices of a insulin-secreting cell viewed in series create a virtual journey
through a microscopic world of organelles.
Golgi Movie II*
This movie through a insulin-secreting cell gives a sense of the three-dimensional
shapes of Golgi compartments.
Golgi Movie III*
Golgi compartments appear close-up in this movie.
Golgi Movie IV**
This movie conveys how packed cells are. The chunk of a insulin-secreting
cell shown here is crammed with Golgi compartments (long, multi-colored
curves in center), endoplasmic reticulum (yellow structures), ribosomes
(tiny orange dots), microtubules (thin green strands), mitochondria (green
globs), and various kinds of vesicles (small white spheres, larger blue
spheres, and irregularly shaped structures in red and purple).
