Document Summary

General principles of protein synthesis, targeting and sorting. Many proteins are synthesized just by cytosolic ribosomes: Some are targeted to intracellular organelles such as er, mitochondria, chloroplasts, peroxisomes, and nucleus (specific signal sequences) Other proteins are synthesized by ribosomes attached to er (the rough er) Targeting signal is the address" to be directed to the location where it"s needed. A signal sequence which directs to take a protein to an organelle. Can happen during or after protein synthesis. Sorting is related more-so towards proteins from secretory pathway. Will be directed towards different pathways through vesicles. Accordingly, two major protein-sorting pathways are known: nonsecretory and secretory. Uninterrupted membranous tubules & vesicles separated from the cytoplasm. Rer has ribosomes on the tubules (cisterna) Showed that secreted proteins must first go through the er. Took isolated microsomes took sample and split into 2 one was treated with detergent (protease) and one did not have detergent (protease) treatment analyze by.
