Lysosome-related organelles (LROs) or granules are the main protease storage and processing organelles of the endolysosomal system. The range of proteases present in LROs is cell-type specific.

He observed that all types of radiolabeled bacterial molecules (lipids, amino acids, and carbohydrates) accumulated in the lysosomes (Cohn 1963). Cohn concluded that lysosomes functioned as the ...

Further experiments revealed that when the lysosome membrane is compromised, an enzyme called phosphatidylinositol-4-kinase type 2a, or PI4K2A, is recruited to the organelle’s surface, possibly in ...

the team found that Spns1 is like a cellular gatekeeper which can help to move a type of fat molecule called lysophospholipids to the lysosome, the cell's "recycling center." These fat molecules ...
