Lacking photosynthetic pigments, leucoplasts are located in non-photosynthetic tissues of plants, such as roots, bulbs and seeds.They may be specialized for bulk storage of starch, lipid or protein and are then known as amyloplasts, elaioplasts, or proteinoplasts (also called aleuroplasts) respectively.
as external source i used another structure found on the book "molecular cell biology" from james darnell, harvey lodish and david baltimore. i tried to convine all in a complete yet simple diagram. i finish it on the 03-feb-05 —LadyofHats 01:12, 3 Feb 2005 (UTC)" Between the changes made are: removed the leucoplast, under request.
[2] [3] There are multiple types of plastids recognized including Leucoplasts, Chromoplasts, and Chloroplasts. [2] Plastids are broken up into different categories based on characteristics such as size, function and physical traits. [2] Chromoplasts help to synthesize and store large amounts of carotenoids. [4]
Leucoplast: in algae, the term is used for all unpigmented plastids. Their function differs from the leucoplasts of plants. Their function differs from the leucoplasts of plants. Apicoplast : the non-photosynthetic plastids of Apicomplexa derived from secondary endosymbiosis.
A diagram showing the different types of plastid. Amyloplasts are thought to play a vital role in gravitropism.Statoliths, a specialized starch-accumulating amyloplast, are denser than cytoplasm, and are able to settle to the bottom of the gravity-sensing cell, called a statocyte. [5]
Ribbon diagrams, also known as Richardson diagrams, are 3D schematic representations of protein structure and are one of the most common methods of protein depiction used today. The ribbon depicts the general course and organization of the protein backbone in 3D and serves as a visual framework for hanging details of the entire atomic structure ...
