Lysosomes

Lysosomes are single-membrane organelles and their contents appear amorphous and highly variable, reflecting their contents and their stages of degradation.  The hydrolytic enzymes in the lysosome are activated by acidification of the contents by proton pumps located in the lysosomal membrane.  The decreased internal pH is optimal for the activity of the acid hydrolases.  This acidification occurs after fusion of the pre-lysosomal vesicle with the material to be degraded.  30,000x
