3 Questions
Which organelle is involved in hydrolysis and contains a variety of degradative hydrolytic enzymes?
Lysosomes
What type of glycoproteins are most of the hydrolytic enzymes in lysosomes?
N-linked glycoproteins
How are the enzymes destined for the lysosomes 'sorted' in the Golgi apparatus?
By binding to mannose 6-phosphate receptors
Test your knowledge on protein targeting and the role of high mannose oligosaccharides in directing certain proteins to specific sites within the cell. Explore the involvement of lysosomes in the hydrolysis process and the sorting of N-linked glycoproteins in the Golgi apparatus.
