This organelle is responsible for the production of chondroitin sulfate, a group that binds to serine residues, as it is the site of glycosaminoglycan synthesis. Retrograde transport from this organelle requires COPI [cop-one] proteins, and the spiral-shaped protein dynamin pinches vesicles off of it. Called dictyosomes in plants, they consist of stacks called cisternae. With a cis face opposite the endoplasmic reticulum and a trans face open to the cytoplasm, for 10 points, name this site of macromolecule processing, an organelle named for an Italian scientist.
