The organelle responsible for protein synthesis is the ribosome. Ribosomes can be found free-floating in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum, forming rough ER. They translate messenger RNA (mRNA) into polypeptide chains, which then fold into functional proteins.

Is smooth er involved in protein synthesis?

Smooth endoplasmic reticulum is not involved in protein synthesis. That is the job of the rough endoplasmic reticulum, which gets its name from the ribosomes embedded on its surface.

What is another name for making protein?

Proteins are the building blocks of life. There are an estimated 10,000 to 50,000 different proteins in the human body. Whenever a cell needs to do something, it makes a specific protein to do it -- like grow a tooth or digest your lunch. Proteins cannot be synthesized (built) without instructions from DNA. This process is called protein synthesis and we'll talk more about it in a minute. But first you need to know what proteins are made of. Remember that we called proteins "the building blocks of life"? Well, amino acids are the building blocks of protein. And it's the order in which these amino acids go together - their "sequence" - that makes each protein unique. So protein synthesis is just a fancy name for making proteins. ----------------------------------------------------- Yes the best name for making protein is protein synthesis.


What molecules contain the codons?

Codons are found in mRNA molecules, which are transcribed from DNA molecules during protein synthesis. Each codon corresponds to a specific amino acid or a signal for the start or end of protein synthesis.


Functional difference between RER and SER?

rough endoplasmic reticulum[RER] has ribosomes attached to it giving a rough appearance thereby deriving its name. smooth endoplasmic reticulum[SER] is devoid of ribosomes. RER- involved in protein synthesis as ribosomes are concerned with protein synthesis. SER-concerned with lipid synthesis in intestinal cells& with steroid formation in adrenals
