Please summarise the main processes of the cellular respiration!
What are reactive free radicals (ROS), and what sources of the do you know?
Rough
Endoplasmic
Reticulum
(RER or GER)
Functions:
• Translation – protein synthesis (ribosomes)
• Posttranslational modification of proteins
(phosphorilation, glycosylation, lipidilation, foldings,
disulphide bounds, etc)
• Packaging proteins into vesicles and pass on Golgi
Smooth
Endoplasmic
Reticulum
(SER, AER)
Functions:
• manufacturing of lipids (phospholipids, glycolipids, cholesterol)
• Ca2+ storage (muscle tissue)
• Detoxifying a number of organic chemicals converting them to
safer water-soluble products.
• Enables glycogen to be broken down to glucose (glycogenolysis)
Functions:
• warehousing, converting, concentrating and shipping
cellular products arriving from ER
• further PTM of proteins
• produce vesicles for secreting substances (regulated and contigno
• produce lysosomes
Lysosomes and Peroxisomes—The Cellular Digestive System
Lysosomes contain
enzymes for degrading proteins,
nucleic acids, and polysaccharides
Function:
-digest foreign bacteria
-helping to recycle receptor proteins
and other membrane components
- degrading worn out organelles such
as mitochondria
Function:
to rid the body of toxic
substances, such as hydrogen
peroxide, or other metabolites
Mitochondria
