Document Summary

Er signal sequence = if present translation occurs on er, when absent translation occurs in cytoplasm. Other signal sequences = these sort proteins to chloroplast, mitochondria, nucleus, lysosomes, golgi and er. Signal recognition particle = binds the er signal sequence and threads it into a channel in er. Signal anchor sequence = blocks transport through the channel so it is stuck in membran. Proteins are initially made in the cytoplasm on ribosomes. Initially there are two choices: stay in the cytoplasm on a free ribosome or bind to the er to make rough er. For proteins that stay in cytoplasm, there are three targeting signals that directs a protein to either the nucleus, chloroplast, or mitochondria. If a protein lacks one of these it ends up in the cytoplasm. Proteins targeted to the er are threaded through a channel to enter.
