A membrane-bounded storage granule found in cells of the aleurone layer in plants; contains either a protein matrix, protein-carbohydrate bodies and/or globoids. Aleurone grains are formed by the vacuole, rough endoplasmic reticulum and dictyosomes. The volume enclosed by the membrane of an aleurone grain. Any small, fluid-filled, spherical organelle enclosed by a lipid bilayer. A membrane-bounded vesicle found in the cytoplasm of the cell. A vesicle formed of membrane or protein, found in the cytoplasm of a cell. The lipid bilayer surrounding an aleurone grain. Organized structure of distinctive morphology and function, bounded by a single or double lipid bilayer membrane and occurring within the cell. Includes the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, and vesicles. Excludes the plasma membrane.
