Description: Acid phosphatase is synthesized in the biosynthetic pathway in the ER and packaged in the TGN into primary lysosomes which are passed on to secondary lysosomes. Primary lysosomes are small vesicles of 75-100nm filled with acid phosphatase and no substrate. They probably fuse with secondary lysosomes before the secondary lysosomes fuse with the DV-II. Small vesicles of the size of primary lysosomes are near secondary lysosomes. TEM taken on 3/26/79 by J. Muraoka with Hitachi HU11A operating at 75kV. Neg. 25,500X. Bar = 0.2µm.
