Phytoplasmas are specialized bacteria that are obligate parasites of the phloem tissue. They are mainly

spread by insects in the families Cicadellidae (leaf hoppers),

Fulgoroidae (plant hoppers), and Psyllidae (jumping plant

lice).

In most mammalian tissues, ubiquinone (also called coenzyme Q) has 10 isoprene units.

Dolichols of animals have 17 to 21 isoprene units (85 to 105 carbon atoms), bacterial dolichols have 11, and those of plants and fungi have 14 to 24.

Membrane and soluble secretory proteins synthesized on the rough ER undergo four principal modifications before they reach their final destinations: 

(1) Glycosylation in the ER and Golgi complex

(2) Formation of disulfide bonds in the ER

(3) Proper folding of polypeptide chains and assembly of multisubunit proteins in the ER

(4) Specific proteolytic cleavages in the ER, Golgi complex, and secretory vesicles
