cytosol

…free calcium ions in the cytosol are removed by an energy-dependent calcium uptake system involving calcium ion pumps located in the longitudinal sarcoplasmic reticulum. These calcium pumps lower the concentration of free calcium in the cytosol, resulting in the dissociation (release) of calcium from the troponin-tropomyosin system. The troponin-tropomyosin system…

…the organelles, suspended in the cytosol, a concentrated aqueous solution rich in enzymes, ions, and metabolites that serves as the site of many metabolic reactions, including portions of cellular respiration and biosynthesis.

…in the cytoplasm called the cytosol. The cytosol contains an organized framework of fibrous molecules that constitute the cytoskeleton, which gives a cell its shape, enables organelles to move within the cell, and provides a mechanism by which the cell itself can move. The cytosol also contains more than 10,000…

…on ribosomes located in the cytosol. As soon as the first portion of the amino acid sequence of a protein emerges from the ribosome, it is inspected for the presence of a short “endoplasmic reticulum (ER) signal sequence.” Those ribosomes making proteins with such a sequence are transported to the…
