Calcification Golgi apparatus

The same could be true for molluscs, except that here calcification started at an earlier geologic age. From what we have presented about the mechanism of calcium carbonate deposition and its close association with the activities of the Golgi apparatus, one cannot escape the conclusion that the whole operation was originally conceived only for the rapid and efficient removal of calcium and perhaps some other elements from within the cell. The unique role of calcium in so many physiological activities307 must also allow for a valve system for the discharge of unwanted surplus. Mineralization probably started as an accident but once a reality it became explored by the organisms. [Pg.50]

Calcification in eucaryotic organisms is frequently related to the Golgi apparatus (see review by Barley, 1974 and Degens, 1976). The Golgi and/or dictyosomes are defined areas of the cytoplasm and endoplasmic reticulum... [Pg.53]
