What is Membrane Biosynthesis in ER about?

The endoplasmic reticulum plays a key role in membrane biosynthesis. Newly synthesized proteins and lipids are inserted into existing ER membranes to allow membrane growth. Membrane components then move from the ER to other organelles. As this occurs, enzymes in each organelle modify the components, giving each membrane a unique identity. Membrane asymmetry, with different compositions in each leaflet, is also established in the ER and maintained as membranes move between organelles. Lipids are synthesized
