Endoplasmic Reticulum in the Cytoplasm


The endoplasmic reticulum is an extension of the copy-related membrane that forms the flat duct or tube-like hole in the cytoplasm. In observation microscope, looks like the RE wavy serpentine channel and mesh hollow-cavity. These channels serve to help move substances from one part of the cell to the other cells. In the cell there are two types of endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is the rough endoplasmic reticulum and smooth endoplasmic reticulum.

1. rough endoplasmic reticulum


Seized the rough endoplasmic reticulum because the surface covered by the ribosome so it looked like a long strand of sand paper. Ribosomes are the site of protein synthesis. Proteins are synthesized on ribosomes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum is usually indicated for the outside of the cell,
After the completion of proteins made by ribosomes on the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum, the protein spatial transported in the endoplasmic reticulum. In this channel protein may be modified by an enzyme present on the surface of the membrane of the endoplasmic reticulum. If the protein has reached the end of the endoplasmic reticulum, the protein is stored in small membrane-containing vesicles. Vesicles formed from slices of smooth endoplasmic reticulum associated with the rough endoplasmic reticulum.
Thus, the function of the rough endoplasmic reticulum in supports protein synthesis and distribute genetic material between the cell nucleus to the cytoplasm.

2. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum ribosomes so surface plastered smooth. Smooth endoplasmic reticulum have enzymes in permukannya which serves for the synthesis of lipid, glycogen, and steroi compounds such as cholesterol, glycerides, and hormone.
