Descriptions Names[Advanced Search]

The internal volume enclosed by the membranes of a particular organelle; includes the volume enclosed by a single organelle membrane, e.g. endoplasmic reticulum lumen, or the volume enclosed by the innermost of the two lipid bilayers of an organelle envelope, e.g. nuclear lumen. Any small, fluid-filled, spherical organelle enclosed by a lipid bilayer. The volume enclosed by the membrane or protein that forms a vesicle. The volume enclosed by the membrane of a cytoplasmic membrane-bounded vesicle. Any constituent part of an organelle, an organized structure of distinctive morphology and function. Includes constituent parts of the nucleus, mitochondria, plastids, vacuoles, vesicles, ribosomes and the cytoskeleton, but excludes the plasma membrane. Any small, fluid-filled, spherical organelle enclosed by membrane or protein. The enclosed volume within a sealed membrane or between two sealed membranes. Encompasses the volume enclosed by the membranes of a particular organelle, e.g. endoplasmic reticulum lumen, or the space between the two lipid bilayers of a double membrane surrounding an organelle, e.g. nuclear envelope lumen.
