4 paź 2019 · The smooth endoplasmic reticulum (smooth ER) is a membranous organelle found in most eukaryotic cells. It is a subset of the endomembrane system of the endoplasmic reticulum.
15 mar 2024 · The types and functions of the Endoplasmic Reticulum include the Rough ER, which synthesizes proteins, and the Smooth ER, which is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification. The Endoplasmic Reticulum diagram shows the cell organelle location within the cytoplasm.
Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum, also called Smooth ER or SER, is a membrane-bound cell organelle which is present near the outer membrane of the nucleus. It is a meshwork of tube-like membrane-bound structure which is responsible for synthesis and storage of lipids.
Endoplasmic Reticulum Diagram. The below diagram shows the variants of the endoplasmic reticulum: Rough ER; Smooth ER; Rough endoplasmic reticulum has ribosomes embedded within its structure, giving a “rough” appearance. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum does not have these ribosomes, hence appearing “smooth.”
9 maj 2023 · In a cell, they are located in the cell periphery, near the external membrane of the nucleus. The number of smooth ER units in a cell depends on its type and manufacturing needs.
15 mar 2019 · The endoplasmic reticulum is an organelle that serves as the cell's manufacturing plant. The rough endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes proteins; the smooth endoplasmic reticulum synthesizes lipids. The folded structure, which contains cisternae and lumen, aids the function of the organelle.
19 lip 2023 · The endoplasmic reticulum is classified as either rough or smooth, with minor variations in size and function in specialised tissue. In this article, we will look at the structure and function of the rough and smooth endoplasmic reticulum, and consider some clinical relevance.
