lysosome

Cells have membrane-surrounded regions {lysosome}| containing enzymes {lysozyme} that can catabolize {autophagy, lysosome} large molecules, such as membranes and poorly folded, denatured, foreign, damaged, or used proteins, and remove sugars from proteins. Ubiquitin recognizes and binds to such proteins, marking them for later break down. Autophagosomes fuse with lysosomes.
