cytosol is also known as?
Cytoplasm
the cytosol organelle is known as?
the largest organelle
Intermediary metabolism
a lot of metabolism occurs in the cytosol
the cytosol organelle represents how much cell volume?
55% (over half the cell)
the cytosol organelle contains
thousands of enzymes (proteins)
really efficient proteins
cytosol organelle catalyzes
glycolysis and gluconeogenesis
(breaking down sugar to produce energy )
in other words glycolysis changes to gluconeogenesis
cytosol organelle consists of
biosynthesis
what are the biosynthesis?
sugars, fatty acids, nucleotides, amino acids
cytosol organelles stores?
storage for fats and glycogen
cytosol organelles consists of
ribosomes: large ribonucleoprotein particle
- —mRNA sequence into amino acid
- —bind amino acids together
