, Peroxisomes are so named because they usually contain enzymes that use oxygen to
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
remove hydrogen atoms from specific substrates in an oxidative reaction that
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
produces H2O2, which is a powerful oxidant and potentially destructive if it
4v
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
accumulates or escapes from peroxisomes. Ribosomes are RNA-protein complexes
4v
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
(nucleoproteins) that are synthesized in the nucleolus and secreted into the cytoplasm
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
through pores in the nuclear envelope called nuclear pore complexes.

Lysosomes are saclike structures that originate from the Golgi complex and contain
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
more than 40 digestive enzymes called hydrolases, which catalyze bonds in proteins,
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
lipids, nucleic acids, and carbohydrates. An endosome is a vesical that has been
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
pinched off from the cellular membrane.

digestive enzymes within the lysosome and the cytoplasm, preventing their
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
leakage into the cytoplasmic matrix. Disruption of the membrane by various
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
treatments or cellular injury leads to a release of the lysosomal enzymes,
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
which can then react with their specific substrates, causing cellular self-

digestion. The chief function of a ribosome is to provide sites for cellular
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
protein synthesis. The Golgi complex is a network of flattened, smooth
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
vesicles and membranes often located near the cell nucleus. The smooth
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
endoplasmic reticulum is involved in steroid hormone production and
4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v 4v
removing toxic substances from the cell.
