Question
select all that apply the functions of the rough endoplasmic reticulum include which of the following? detoxification of foreign substances protein synthesis glycoprotein synthesis steroid synthesis protein sorting
The rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER) has ribosomes attached to its surface. It is involved in protein synthesis as ribosomes are the sites of protein - making. Glycoproteins are proteins with carbohydrate groups attached, and the RER is also involved in their synthesis. Protein sorting also occurs in the RER as newly - synthesized proteins are prepared for their final destinations within or outside the cell. Detoxification of foreign substances and steroid synthesis are functions of the smooth endoplasmic reticulum.
