1. PDQ’s Eukaryotic Cells 4.3-4.5

2. 1. Nuclear Envelope/Pores Double Phospholipid membrane around nucleus Contains pores to allow RNA and protein out of the nucleus. Function is to separate transcription from translation

3. 2. Nucleolus vs. rRNA vs. ribosomes Nucleolus - makes ribosomes, inside nucleus rRNA – ribosomal RNA, made inside nucleolus Ribosomes – consists of 2 units; – protein synthesis, – can be found free in cytoplasm or attached to the RER; – do not have a membrane around them; are not considered to be organelles;

4. 3. Free ribosomes vs. RER ribosomes If the ribosome made protein that is destined to be modified, then those ribosomes go and attach to the RER.

5. 4. Endomembrane System RER- chemically modifies proteins and tags them for delivery and sends them out in vesicles SER – lipid & steroid synthesis; chemical breakdown of drugs; break down glycogen in animal cells Golgi Apparatus – packages and sorts proteins; adds carbohydrates to some proteins; makes polysaccharides in plant cells Lysosomes – originate from Golgi Body; contain digestive enzymes to break down macromolecules

6. 5. Endomembrane System Function The endomembrane system is a series of compartments that work together to package, label, and ship proteins and molecules

7. 6. Path of protein Part 1 – RER, vesicle, CIS region of Golgi Body, Vesicle – out from Trans Region of Golgi, plasma membrane Part 2 – Primary lysosome comes from Golgi, phagosome comes from membrane with food, join together to form the secondary lysosome, digestion of small molecules into cytoplasm, undigested molecules gets released out of plasma membrane

8. 7. Lysosomal storage disorder Lysosomes fail to digest stuff They can be detected in cells where an accumulation occurs due to the lack of it breaking down

9. 8. Chloroplasts and mitochondria No, they are not a part of the endomembrane system, though they contain membranes around them.

10. 9. Functions of chloroplasts and mitochondria Chloroplasts photosynthesis Mitochondria Breakdown of glucose into ATP

11. 10. Plastids Big category of many organelles which store pigments, carbohydrates, lipids or protein Chloroplast is an example

12. 11. Chloroplasts, Chromoplasts, Leucoplasts Chloroplasts – contains chlorophyll (green) Chromoplasts – yellow and red pigments Leucoplasts - colorless

13. 12. Peroxisomes and Vacuoles They are not a part of the endomembrane system

14. 13. Peroxisomes Small organelles that accumulate toxins such as H2O2. Break down this H2O2 into water and oxygen

15. 14. Vacuole Functions Storage of food, water, waste, pigments and enzymes Structure – take up 90% of cell volume Reproduction – storing pigments attracts animals which assists in pollination Catabolism – enzymes break down proteins etc.

16. 15. Plants waste Central Vacuole contains digestive enzymes to help break down things

17. 16. Mitochondria and chloroplast

18. 16 continued… endosymbiotic theory Chloroplast and mitochondria both have their own DNA

19. 17. Cytoskeleton Supports cell Maintains cell shape Controls organelles and their movement Involved with cytoplasmic streaming Interacts with extracellular structures Helps to anchor cell in place

20. 18. Microfilaments Bundles 7 nm in diameter Made up of the protein actin Help cell to move Determine and stabilize cell shape

21. 18. Intermediate filaments Tough ropelike protein assemblages, 8- 12 nm Anchor cell structures in place Resist tension

22. 18. Microtubules Largest diameter, long and hollow Form a rigid skeleton Act as framework along which motor proteins can move structures in cell

23. 19. Cilia and Flagella Made of a 9+2 pattern of microtubules These microtubules slide past each other driven by a motor protein called dynein powered by ATP

24. 20. Centriole Same as cilia
