Ribosome Synthesis: Nucleoli And Organelle Interactions
Ribosomes, the protein synthesis machinery of cells, are manufactured within specialized organelles known as nucleoli. Nucleoli are subnuclear compartments that contain the genetic material responsible for ribosome synthesis: ribosomal DNA (rDNA). To assemble functional ribosomes, nucleoli interact with other organelles, including the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where ribosomal proteins are synthesized, and the Golgi apparatus, where … Read more
