  2. Lysosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysosome

    A lysosome (/ ˈ l aɪ s ə ˌ s oʊ m /) is a single membrane-bound organelle found in many animal cells. [1] [2] They are spherical vesicles that contain hydrolytic enzymes that digest many kinds of biomolecules. A lysosome has a specific composition, of both its membrane proteins and its lumenal proteins.

  3. LAMP1 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP1

    Lysosomal-associated membrane protein 1 (LAMP-1) also known as lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein 1 and CD107a (Cluster of Differentiation 107a), is a protein that in humans is encoded by the LAMP1 gene. The human LAMP1 gene is located on the long arm (q) of chromosome 13 at region 3, band 4 (13q34).

  4. Lysosome-associated membrane glycoprotein - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lysosome-associated...

    CD68 (also called gp110 or macrosialin) [5] is a heavily glycosylated integral membrane protein whose structure consists of a mucin-like domain followed by a proline-rich hinge; a single LAMP-like domain; a transmembrane region and a short cytoplasmic tail. CD molecules are leucocyte antigens on cell surfaces.

  5. Endomembrane system - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Endomembrane_system

    Glycoproteins on the membrane assist the cell in recognizing other cells, in order to exchange metabolites and form tissues. Other proteins on the plasma membrane allow attachment to the cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix; a function that maintains cell shape and fixes the location of membrane proteins. Enzymes that catalyze reactions are ...

  6. LAMP2 - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/LAMP2

    Its protein, LAMP2, is one of the lysosome-associated membrane glycoproteins. The protein encoded by this gene is a member of a family of membrane glycoproteins. This glycoprotein provides selectins with carbohydrate ligands. It may play a role in tumor cell metastasis. It may also function in the protection, maintenance, and adhesion of the ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Membrane_contact_site

    [3] [4] MCS are important in the function of the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), [5] since this is the major site of lipid synthesis within cells. [6] The ER makes close contact with many organelles, including mitochondria , Golgi , endosomes , lysosomes , peroxisomes , chloroplasts and the plasma membrane . [ 7 ]

    Robinson enters Week 12 with a much better matchup against the Cowboys. Dallas ranks 30th in run defense according to PFF and allows the fourth-most fantasy points per game to the position. Expect ...

  9. Autophagosome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autophagosome

    An autophagosome is a spherical structure with double layer membranes. [2] It is the key structure in macroautophagy, the intracellular degradation system for cytoplasmic contents (e.g., abnormal intracellular proteins, excess or damaged organelles, invading microorganisms).
