1. Please turn in the scientific skills homework from Friday. You will be uploading the book onto your iPad tomorrow in class.

2. Chapter 4 Endomembrane System

3. You Must Know The structure and function of the endomembrane system. How different cell types show differences in subcellular components. As you are learning about cells, consider what cell features might be present in abundance or absent in certain cells based on their functions.

4. Concept 4.4: The endomembrane system regulates protein traffic and performs metabolic functions in the cell Components of the endomembrane system – Nuclear envelope – Endoplasmic reticulum – Golgi apparatus – Lysosomes – Vacuoles – Plasma membrane These components are either continuous or connected through transfer by vesicles © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

5. The Endoplasmic Reticulum: Biosynthetic Factory The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) accounts for more than half of the total membrane in many eukaryotic cells The ER membrane is continuous with the nuclear envelope There are two distinct regions of ER – Smooth ER: lacks ribosomes – Rough ER: surface is studded with ribosomes © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

7. Functions of Rough ER The rough ER – Proteins destined for secretion outside of the cell or insertion into cell membranes are processed in the rough ER. (Proteins that stay in the cytosol are not modified by the rough ER.) – Makes glycoproteins (proteins covalently bonded to carbohydrates) – Proteins modified in the rough ER and distributed in transport vesicles. – The rough ER also assembles phospholipids from precursors in the cytosol. © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

8. What type of cells would have a lot of rough ER? Cells that produce products for secretion. For example, pancreatic cells which produce the protein insulin.

9. Functions of Smooth ER The smooth ER – Synthesizes lipids including oils, phospholipids and steroids – Metabolizes carbohydrates – Detoxifies drugs and poisons – Stores calcium ions © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

10. What type of cells would have a lot of smooth ER? Cells that detoxify drugs – ex, liver Cells that produce lots of lipids. – For example, the testes and ovaries which produce the steroids testosterone and estrogen.

11. The Golgi apparatus consists of flattened membranous sacs called cisternae Functions of the Golgi apparatus – Modifies products of the ER – Manufactures certain macromolecules (especially polysaccharides) – Sorts and packages materials into transport vesicles The Golgi Apparatus: Shipping and Receiving Center © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

13. Lysosomes: Digestive Compartments A lysosome is a membranous sac of hydrolytic enzymes that can digest macromolecules Lysosomal enzymes can hydrolyze proteins, fats, polysaccharides, and nucleic acids Lysosomal enzymes work best in the acidic environment inside the lysosome © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

14. Vacuoles: Diverse Maintenance Compartments Vacuoles are large vesicles derived from the endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi apparatus © 2014 Pearson Education, Inc.

20. Gaucher Disease (this is a hereditary disease) Symptoms – Distended abdomen – Bone pain – Anemia – Cognitive impairment

21. White blood cells have a type of lipid called glucocerebroside in their cell membranes. (Glucocerebroside is involved in cell to cell signaling.) Judging by the name, what type of molecule is attached to the lipid?

22. When the white blood cells are worn out, they get “eaten” by macrophages (another type of cell) and digested by the enzyme glucocerebrosidease in the lysosome. White blood cells

23. Gaucher Disease The macrophages have a defective glucocerebrosidease enzyme so the glucocerebroside just builds up in the lysosome. The build-up causes the symptoms of the disease. White blood cells

24. Trace the path for synthesizing the protein glucocerebrosidease. (Start with DNA) Trace the path for synthesizing the lipid glucocerebroside. (Synthesis of the lipid part starts in the smooth ER) Explain the digestion of glucocerebroside by glucocerebrosidease. Note: You will not be expected to remember the specifics of Gaucher disease on a test, but you may be asked about other lysosomal storage disorders.
