The vesicle is a lysosome and from there the lysosomes float in the cytoplasm until they are needed. So it is like a stomach of a cell. ]]> 2017-11-16 18:59:22 UTC https://padlet.com/2021karenmoore/2drd1bdhqsa6/wish/207847450 Lysosomes affecting the Tay-Sachs Disease 2021karenmoore https://padlet.com/2021karenmoore/2drd1bdhqsa6/wish/207901643 The HEXA gene gives instruction for making part of an enzyme.
