Question

Colorful animal cells are rich in melanosomes, a specialized organelle that contains pigments, like melanin, and the enzymes that produce them. Melanosomes are found only in certain cells and are called lysosome-related organelles based on their origin, but they do not contain hydrolases or have a low pH. How would you expect these melanosomes to form?

Answer 1

Lysosomes originate from the endomembrane system when late endosomes receive enzymes imported from the Golgi apparatus. If melanosomes have a similar origin, then they would arise from an endosome-like vesicle that receives cargo from the Golgi apparatus.
