1. Traffic Police: Golgibodies bind proteins and lipids produced in cells. It is then converted into lipoproteins. Releases lipoproteins out of cells. Hence Goljibodi is called traffic police.
2. Carbohydrate Factories: Synthesize and secrete complex polysaccharides in Golgibody cells. This is why the Golgibody is called a carbohydrate factory.
3. Cell wall formation: Golgibodies form hemicellulose microfibrils. These elements form the plant cell wall. Cell wall is a unique feature of plant cells.
4. Formation of Cell Membranes: Golgibodies help in the formation of cell membranes. Cell membrane controls the movement of various substances.
5. Formation of cell plates: It forms cell plates during cell division. Cell plates join together to form the cell wall.
6. Glycosylation: Linking proteins to sugars to produce glycols. The process by which glycols are produced is called glycosylation.
7. Acrosome Formation: Golgibodies form the acrosome of sperm. Acrosome provides energy to the sperm.
8. Lysosome formation: Golgibodies help in the formation of lysosomes. Lysosomes cause autolysis.
9. Storage function: It stores food items. It stores protein and vitamin-C.
10. Chemical secretion: Cell metabolites are secreted. Helps in secretion of water, enzymes, proteins and hormones.
11. Melanin production: Melanin is produced from the Golgi body of mammary cancer and tumor cells.
12. Enzyme production: Golgibodies produce enzymes to generate ATP. ATP provides energy for cells.
13. Production of chemical substances: Galactose, silicic acid, pectin, polysaccharides etc. are produced from sugars.
14. Detoxification: It destroys many toxins or toxins in the cells. As a result, the body gets rid of toxins.
15. Side chain formation: Golgibodies attach side chains to oligosaccharides of glycoproteins in plant cells.
16. Excretion of water: Golgibody excretes water from cells.
