2.1.1 Protein Synthesis Flashcards
1
Q
Where are the proteins made?
A
Ribsosomes
2
Q
What do the ribosomes on the RER form?
A
Proteins that are excreted or attached to the cell membrane
3
Q
What do the free ribosomes make?
A
Proteins that stay in the cytoplasm
4
Q
What is the function of the RER?
A
Proteins are folded and processed
5
Q
What is the function of the Golgi apparatus and how do the proteins get there?
A
Proteins are transported in transport vesicles and at the Golgi apparatus theyy undergo further processing and modifying (such as adding sugar chains to form a glycoproteins)
6
Q
Where do the proteins go next and how do they get there?
A
Proteins transported in secretory vesicles to get to the cell surface membrane to be excreted.
