Chapter 5.5, Problem 3CC
Summary Introduction
Ribosomes are large complex molecular structure composed of RNA and protein molecules. They are present in both eukaryotes and prokaryotes and they are mainly involved in the synthesis of protein. Eukaryotic ribosomes can be either attached to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) or found free in the cytoplasm. Both ER-bound ribosomes and free ribosomes are involved in protein synthesis.
