Difference Between Prokaryotic and Eukaryotic Ribosomes (70S vs 80S)
Ribosomesare protein synthesizing nano machines present in all types of cells. Ribosomes are ribonucleoprotein protein complexes (RNA+ Protein) made up of two subunits a larger subunit and a smaller subunit. Occurrence:
Occur as free ribosomes in cytoplasm Bound to rough endoplasmic reticulam (RER) Bound to nuclear outer membrane Function: Protein synthesis 80S vs 70S Ribosomes 80 S ribosome 70S ribosome Present in Eukaryotes or all higher organisms.
