The lipids constituting the membrane are synthesized in smooth endoplasmic reticulum (SER) and are transported to cell membrane. Membrane proteins are synthesized on cytoplasmic ribosomes from where they are transported to Golgi apparatus and endoplasmic reticulum for further modifications and then transported to cell membrane.
