Starch Granules
Heterotrophic Microalgae

Starch granules are very common in chloroplasts, and in some other plastids like amyloplasts.

In red algae, starch granules are found in the cytoplasm rather than in the chloroplast.

Starch granules are composed of two distinct glucose polymers - amylose and amylopectin. Amylose constitutes 5-35% of most natural starches and has a major influence over starch properties in foods. Its synthesis and storage occurs within the semicrystalline amylopectin matrix of starch granules.

Prion
Glycosylphosphatidylinositol

Prion protein contains two N-linked glycosylation sites and a glycosylphosphatidylinositol (GPI) anchor.

The large size of the N-linked sugars, together with their dynamic properties, enables them to shield two orthogonal faces of the protein almost completely. Thus, the sugars can protect large regions of the protein surface from proteases and from nonspecific protein−protein interactions.

Immunoprecipitation of prion protein with calnexin suggests that in the ER the oligosaccharides may provide a route for protein folding via the calnexin pathway.

Glycan analysis has shown that prion protein contains at least 52 different sugars, that these consist of a subset of brain sugars, and that there is site specific glycan processing.

i was told by a marine biologist, if Coral Reef is not completely removed from a cut, it will begin growing inside your body, onto the bone

wonder if the prion inserts have anything in common with coral?
