The endomembrane system is a group of membranes and organelles in eukaryotic cells that work together to modify, package, and transport lipids and proteins. It includes the nuclear envelope, endoplasmic reticulum, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, and vesicles. Mitochondria are not derived from the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi apparatus, which is why they are not part of the endomembrane system.
