Document Summary

Have a targeting/signaling sequence that guides it to an organelle. Involves the movement and creation of vesicles. Proteins in the er that must be moved to the golgi. Protein in the golgi that must be moved to the lysosomes. Recognized by other proteins that help move the soluble protein. First guide it to the late endosome. Then deliver the soluble proteins to the lysosome for degradation. Smaller example, indentation of the plasma membrane captures a small amount of the extracellular fluid. Has a receptor that binds to what you want to transport (ligand) Lipids (like cholesterol) are hydrophobic doesn"t transport well inside the cell by itself. Ldl are the well-defined, soluble proteins that encase lipids for transport. Needs to be encased before it can be transported in the cell. Non polar-side interact with polar lipids inside. Hydrophilic outer layer interact with the aqueous cell environment.
