Proteins are made at the **ribosomes**. Ribosomes can be found either free in the cytoplasm or attached to the endoplasmic reticulum (ER), where they play a crucial role in translating messenger RNA (mRNA) into polypeptide chains (proteins). Once synthesized, proteins may undergo further modifications and packaging in the Golgi apparatus and other organelles, but the actual process of protein synthesis occurs at the ribosomes.
