Some of the protein and lipid from smooth endoplasmic reticulum help in building the cell membrane.
Lipids present in the cell membrane are synthesized in the smooth endoplasmic reticulum which does not contain the ribosomes. However, the proteins are produced in the rough endoplasmic reticulum, which is called so because it has ribosomes attached to the endoplasmic reticulum. Ribosomes help in protein synthesis.
