Lysosomes is responsible for breaking down organic molecules. This part of cell is found in the cytoplasm mainly in eukaryotic cells. These membrane-bound organelles contain a variety of enzymes called hydrolases that can digest proteins, nucleic acids, lipids, and complex sugars. The lumen of a lysosome is more acidic than the cytoplasm.
