The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an organelle found in eukaryotic cells that plays a key role in protein and lipid synthesis, as well as calcium ion storage and release. It is composed of a network of membranes that form interconnected tubules and flattened sacs. There are two types of ER: rough ER, which has ribosomes attached to its surface and is involved in protein synthesis, and smooth ER, which lacks ribosomes and is involved in lipid metabolism and detoxification.
