Document Summary

Functions of the er: entry point for proteins into the secretory pathway (co-translational transfer across. Cells producing large amounts of lipids have abundant ser: controls calcium levels in cytoplasm by acting as a calcium store (cell signaling, muscle contraction) Gfp expressed in plant leaf cells are designed to only reside in the er. Gfp on its own has no specific targeting signals in its primary sequence. Proteins that have a specific destination contain a sorting/targeting signal in their sequence. Sorting/targeting signals: direct the protein to a specific organelle, must be present for protein to leave the cytosol compartment. Key idea: macromolecules contain within their sequence information that governs their processing and transport. Typical signal sequences for retention in lumen of er: (cid:858)kdel(cid:859) sequence. When is the signal recognized: post translational trafficking of proteins 2. Therefore, not all proteins are processed once they are translated. The rer and ser are continuous and interconnected.
