Assembly and disassembly of the Golgi apparatus (see text for details). Three to four Golgi cisternae form a stack (middle panel), which associate with each other laterally to form ribbons (top panel) during assembly. During disassembly, the ribbons are broken down into stacks of cisternae, which might undergo fragmentation leading to the formation of vesicles and breakdown of the Golgi apparatus.
