Protocol | State of Golgi | Steps of Cargo Synchronisation | |||
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Complex | Accumulation of Cargo in ER Exit Sites and Emptying of Golgi | Duration of Cargo Pulse | Block of Delivery of Visible Cargoes to the Golgi | Beginning of Video Recording | |
1. Small pulse (40-15-40) | |||||
A. E-40-15-40-small (the mini-wave) | Empty | 16 h at 40 °C | 15 min at 15 °C | Shift back to 40 °C | 2 min after shift to 40 °C |
