The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that forms an interconnected network of tubules, vesicles, and sac-like structures called cisternae. The rough ER is studded with ribosomes and synthesizes proteins, while the smooth ER synthesizes lipids and metabolizes carbohydrates and drugs. The ER transports proteins and lipids within the cell and to other organelles, and also performs functions like calcium regulation and glycoprotein production.
Proteoglycans are protein chains that are covalently bonded at multiple sites to a class of polysaccharides, known as glycosaminoglycans.Glycosaminoglycans constitute 95% of proteins.Proteoglycans are synthesised in RE and transported to GA where they are modified in to various forms.Proteoglycans are major component of ECM and their role is depended on the type of GAGs they associate with.
A membrane protein is a protein molecule that is attached to, or associated with the membrane of a cell or an organelle.
More than half of all proteins interact with membranes.

Wakhic People are Native Originated from Wakhan, presently living in Four Countries of our Time i.e. China, Pakistan, Afghanistan and Tajikistan. The Wakhic Language is on endanger list of Languages, therefor a message for the Day: When a Language dies, an identity dies, a cultural knowledge dies, a fruitful tree from the garden of world dies, so let's work together to safe guard the endangered languages.

We introduce plaque inverse limits of branched covering self-maps of simply-connected Riemann surfaces and study their local topology at various irregular points.

The cell is the basic structural and functional unit of all known living organisms.
It is the smallest unit of life that is classified as a living thing, and is often called the building block of life.
4. • Rough endoplasmic reticulum
• The surface of the rough endoplasmic reticulum (RER)
is studded with protein-manufacturing
ribosomes giving it a "rough" appearance However,
the ribosomes bound to the RER at any one time are
not a stable part of this organelle's structure as
ribosomes are constantly being bound and released
from the membrane . a ribosome in the cytosol begins
synthesizing a protein until a signal recognition
particle recognizes the pre-piece of 5 -15 hydrophobic
amino acids preceded by a positively charged amino
acid.
5. • This signal sequence allows the recognition particle to
bind to the ribosome, causing the ribosome to bind to
the RER and pass the new protein through the ER
membrane. The membrane of the RER is continuous
with the outer layer of the nuclear envelope . The
membrane of ER contain many kind of enzymes
needed for various activities.
• Functions: a) Transport of proteins- Secretory
proteins, mostly glycoprotein, are moved across the
endoplasmic reticulum membrane. Proteins that are
transported by the endoplasmic reticulum and from
there throughout the cell are marked with an address
tag called a signal sequence.
6.
7. • . The N-terminus (one end) of a polypeptide chain
contains a few amino acids that work as an address
tag, which are removed when the polypeptide reaches
its destination. Proteins that are destined for places
outside the endoplasmic reticulum are packed into
transport vesicles and moved along the cytoskeleton
towards their destination. Insertion of proteins into the
endoplasmic reticulum as they are being synthesized.
Insertion into the endoplasmic reticulum membrane
requires the correct topogenic signal sequences in
the protein.
• Glycosylation involves the attachment of
Oligosaccharide moiety.
9. • It consists of tubules and vesicles that branch forming
a network. In some cells there are dilated areas like
the sacs of rough endoplasmic reticulum. The network
of smooth endoplasmic reticulum allows increased
surface area for the action or storage of key enzymes
and the products of these enzymes.
• Functions of SER:
• Synthesis of lipids like cholesterol ,phospholipids etc.
• Glycogenolysis - the enzyme, glucose-6-phosphatase
is a membrane bound one.
• Steroid hormone biosynthesis
10. • Detoxification: ER chemically modifies xenobiotics
making them more hydrophilic in nature.
• Synthesis of trigylcerides in intestinal absorptive cells
and visual pigment from vitamin A by epithelial cells of
retina.
