RibosomeRibosome

Endoplasmic Reticulum-set of interconnected membranes. Forms cisternae. 2 types:

Rough ER - studded with ribosomes that are attached to cytosolic side of rER

Smooth ER- no ribosomes

*Ribosomes formed in nucleolus*

The Endoplasmic ReticulumThe Endoplasmic Reticulum

Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) - system of tubes and sacs formed by membranes

Rough = modifies proteins produced on the ribosomes. Synthesis of proteins for export from the cell, integral proteins of cell membrane, enzymes of lysosomes

Smooth = functions in lipid synthesis (including steroids), carbohydrate synthesis and metabolism, drug detoxification, and calcium storage in muscle cells

CytoskeletonCytoskeleton

Major components:

1. Microtubules (composed of tubulin subunits)

2. Microfilaments (mostly actin and myosin)

3. Intermediate filaments

Functions: support & movement of cellular structures & materials
