Comprehension - L10-L11 Flashcards
What do most proteins produced at the RER become?
glycosylated glycoproteins
What is N-linked glycosylation?
- Linkage to asparagine
- Is initiated in the RER
What is O-linked glycosylation?
Linkage to serine and threonine
occurs in the Golgi complex
How do things exit the ER?
- Membrane vesicles bud from the ER
- Transport vesicles fuse with one another to form VTCs in the ERGIC
What happens in the Trans Golgi Network?
Sorting station where proteins are sorted into diff types of vesicles
What happens in the Cis Golgi network?
Sorting station that distinguishes between proteins that need to be returned tot he ER and those that should proceed through Golgi
What determines the ordered that sugars are incorporated?
The location of specific glycosyltransferases
What model explains movement through the Golgi?
Cisternal maturation model
What do Clathrin-coated vesicles do?
Move materials from the TGN to: endosomes, lysosomes, and plant vacuoles
(endocytosis)
What do COP1-coated vesicles do?
Move cargo backwards
- From ERGIC/Golgi to ER
- From trans to cis Golgi
What do COP2-coated vesicles do?
Move cargo forward from the ER to Golgi complex
Which protein acts as a gatekeeper in the ER quality control system by catalyzing monoglucosylation onto incompletely folded glycoproteins, allowing them to recognized by ER chaperons.
UGGT
What are two main functions of the COP2 coat proteins?
- Bend the membrane
- Select and concentrate the proteins to be transported
What is the membrane bending G protein called in COP1 coated vesicles?
Arf1
How do vesicles move towards the specific target compartment?
Movement is mediated by microtubules and motor proteins
