Ribosomes make proteins (polypeptides).
They synthesize proteins by translating messenger RNA (mRNA) sequences into a chain of amino acids, joining those amino acids with peptide bonds. Free ribosomes in the cytosol generally make proteins that function in the cytoplasm, nucleus, mitochondria, or peroxisomes; ribosomes bound to the rough endoplasmic reticulum make proteins destined for secretion, incorporation into membranes, or delivery to the endomembrane system. Mitochondria and chloroplasts also have their own ribosomes that produce some organelle-specific proteins.
