Biology And Biomedical Sciences BIOL 2960 Lecture Notes - Lecture 4: Cell Membrane, Cellular Respiration, Inner Membrane
Document Summary
Lecture 4: cell structure & organization part 3. Clicker: path taken by a protein targeted to the lysosome. Rer --> vesicle --> cis golgi --> trans golgi --> lysosome. Packages these enzymes away so that they don"t erode the cell from the inside. Lysosomes bud off of the golgi apparatus -- primary lysosome. Vesicles fuse with primary lysosome -- secondary lysosome. Site of cellular respiration and transformation of energy (atp) Contains prokaryotic ribosomes and dna (of prokaryotic origin) Endosymbiont theory -- mitochondria are remnants of eubacterial cells that took up residence in an ancestral eukaryotic cell. Plastids -- non-green site of photosynthesis -- chromoplasts & amyloplasts. Site of biosynthesis of fatty acid, starch & other important biomolecules. Plastids also contain a separate dna genome and ribosomes and multiple membranes. Plastids are remnants of photosynthetic bacterial cells that took up residence in an ancestral eukaryotic cell as a result of an additional endosymbiotic event.
