Question
damaged proteins
which organelle degrades damaged proteins?
nucleus
proteasomes
peroxisome
smooth endoplasmic reticulum (er)
golgi apparatus
Proteasomes are responsible for degrading damaged and mis - folded proteins. The nucleus is the control center for cell activities and contains DNA. Peroxisomes are involved in lipid metabolism and the breakdown of hydrogen peroxide. The smooth endoplasmic reticulum is involved in lipid synthesis and detoxification. The Golgi apparatus modifies, sorts, and packages proteins and lipids for secretion or use within the cell.
