Proteinoplasts originate from plastids.[1] Plastids are specialized double-membrane organelles found in plant cells.[2] Plastids perform a variety of functions such as metabolism of energy, and biological reactions.[2][3] There are multiple types of plastids recognized including Leucoplasts, Chromoplasts, and Chloroplasts.[2] Plastids are broken up into different categories based on characteristics such as size, function and physical traits.[2] Chromoplasts help to synthesize and store large amounts of carrotenoids.[4] Chloroplasts are photosynthesizing structures that help to make light energy for the plant. [4] Leucoplasts are a colorless type of plastid which means that no photosynthesis occurs here.[3] The colorless pegmentation of the leucopplast is due to not containing the structural components of thylakoids unlike what is found in chloroplasts and chromoplasts that gives them thier pigmentation.[4] From leucoplasts stems the subtype, proteinoplasts, which contain proteins for storage.[2] Other subtypes of Leucoplasts include amyloplast, and elaioplasts. Amyloplasts help to store and synthesize starch molecules found in plants, while elaioplasts synthisize and store lipids in plant cells.[1]
