Question

Which enzyme is present in lysosomes?

Answer 1

Lysosomes :

1. Lysosomes are membrane-enclosed organelles that contain an array of enzymes capable of breaking down all types of biological polymers—proteins, nucleic acids, carbohydrates, and lipids.
2. Lysosomes filled with hydrolytic enzymes are used for the controlled intracellular digestion of macromolecules.
3. They contain about 40 types of hydrolytic enzymes, including proteases, nucleases, glycosidases, lipases, phospholipases, phosphatases, and sulfatases.
4. Lysosomes are rich in hydrolytic enzymes such as proteases, lipases, and other hydrolases.
