:
A system of cisternae in the
CYTOPLASM
of many
cells
. In places the
endoplasmic reticulum
is continuous with the
plasma
membrane (CELL MEMBRANE) or outer membrane of the
nuclear envelope
. If the outer surfaces of the
endoplasmic reticulum
membranes
are coated with
ribosomes
, the
endoplasmic reticulum
is said to be rough-surfaced (ENDOPLASMIC
RETICULUM
, ROUGH); otherwise it is said to be smooth-surfaced (ENDOPLASMIC
RETICULUM
, SMOOTH). (King & Stansfield, A
