Name : - Ribosomes , protein factories
Properties
- These are the dot like or granular structure without limiting any membrane.
- It's diameter 15nm.
- It is made up of 35% protein and 65% ribonucleic acid (RNA) called ribosomal RNA.
- Human ribosomes are 80S ('S' for Svedberg's Unit)
- Each ribosome has two subunits i.e. larger (60S) and smaller (40S)
Types of Ribosomes :
- Ribosomes attach to the endoplsamic reticulum called rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER).
- Free ribosome - that are distributed in the cytoplasm.
Function of Ribosomes :-
- Rough endoplasmic reticulum :- Synthesis of protein such as enzymatic protein, hormonal protein, lysosomal protein and the protein of the cell membrane.
- Free ribosomes :- are responsible for synthesis of protein in haemoglobin, peroxisome and mitochondria.
