no, they are synthesised in the smooth ER of the cell

What is the endoplasm function?

The rough ER is the site of protein modification and folding of proteins, if they need folding. The smooth ER is the site of lipid and steroid synthesis.

What are 2 functions of the endoplasmic reticulum?

if it's the rough ER then it functions to transport protein but if its the smooth ER it functions as a site of lipid and steroid synthesis


What is the site of steroid synthesis lipid metabolism and drug detoxification?

Smooth ER


What type of macromolecule do smooth and rough ER produce?

Smooth ER is involved in lipid and steroid synthesis.


What serves as a production site for proteins and lipids and packages then into vesicles for transport elsewhere in the cell?

The endoplasmic reticulum. Specifically the "rough" ER is the site of protein synthesis and the "smooth" ER is the site of lipid synthesis.


What are smooth and rough endoplasmic reticulum?

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum (smooth ER) is involved in lipid and steroid hormone synthesis, as well as detoxification of drugs and toxins. Rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER) is studded with ribosomes that give it a 'rough' appearance under the microscope, and is involved in protein synthesis and trafficking.


What is the function of endoplasmic reticulunm?

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is responsible for protein and lipid synthesis, as well as for the transport of these molecules within the cell. It plays a crucial role in the synthesis, folding, and modification of proteins before they are transported to their final destination within or outside the cell.


What is the function of Rough endoplasmic reteculume?

The rough ER is the site of protein synthesis as the ribosomes that stud it's surface put the growing polypeptide chain into the lumen of the rough ER. Also the rough ER is the site of some modifications to the protein before it goes to the Golgi body.


What do you understand by endoplasmic reticulum?

That the rough ER is the site of protein synthesis and the smooth ER deals with lipids, carbohydrates and detoxification.


What structure is the site of the synthesis of proteins that may be exported from a cell?

Rough ER (Endoplasmic Reticulum)


How can you tell rough ER and smooth ER?

Rough endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has ribosomes attached to its surface, giving it a "rough" appearance, and is involved in protein synthesis and processing. Smooth ER lacks ribosomes, appears smooth, and is involved in lipid and steroid synthesis, as well as detoxification processes.
