3. What would happen if the Endoplasmic Reticulum was damaged? -
Correct Answer - proteins could be malformed, rejected, or not sent to Golgi
Apparatus, causing multiple pathologies without the ER or genetically
altered ER. The Endoplasmic Reticulum (ER) supports homeostasis in the cell
and subsequently in the body. It is the organelle responsible for folding newly
synthesized proteins before they are exported to the Golgi Apparatus for
packing and shipping. Another important function of the ER is helping to
regulate the calcium-ROS balance. Lipid biosynthesis is a third role the ER
plays in the cell.
