1.5 Cell Organelles DSA Flashcards
Where are the digestive enzymes found in the Lysosomes synthesized?
Where are they packaged and labeled?
In the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum
In the Golgi Apparatus
What molecule serves as a tag for these digestive enzymes?
Mannose 6 Phosphate
What do digestive enzyme stuffed golgi vesicles bond to to form a lysosome?
What is it that activates the digestive enzymes?
A late endosome.
The acidic environment of the late endosome dissociates the Mannose 6 Phosphate tags, activating the digestive enzymes.
What maintains the acidic environment inside lysosomes?
H+ ATPase
What is Crinophagy?
When a lysosome digests a cell’s excess secretory product (like a hormone for a hormone producing cell)
What enzyme do peroxisomes use to break down H2O2?
Catalase
