Functions of Endoplasmic Reticulum:

the endoplasmic reticulum is categorised into two types, and both these types of ER performs specific functions:

Smooth Endoplasmic Reticulum Function:

  • Smooth ER is responsible for the synthesis of essential lipids such as phospholipids and cholesterol.
  • Smooth ER is also responsible for the production and secretion of steroid hormones.
  • It is also responsible for the metabolism of carbohydrates.
  • The smooth ER store and release calcium ions. These are quite important for the nervous system and muscular system.

Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum Function:

  • The majority of the functions of rough ER plays is associated with protein synthesis.
  • Rough endoplasmic reticulum also plays a vital role in protein folding.
  • Also ensures quality control (regarding correct protein folding).
  • The second most important function after protein synthesis and protein folding is protein sorting.
