Lysosomes – Digestive Organelle of an Animal Cell

By | July 27, 2021

A lysosome has approximately 50 different hydrolytic enzymes. These enzymes are produced by the endoplasmic reticulum and targeted lysosomes. Lysosome enzymes can digest every type of biological macromolecule. All the enzymes of the lysosome share significant properties – their optical activity at an acid pH and thus are acid hydrolases. The pH optimum of these… Read More »
