Q

When does protein elongation resume?

A

Once the SRP docks with its like receptor, the signal sequence is inserted in the translocon membrane channel where it is released following cleavage of the signal sequence by a signal peptidase.

Q

The ER is divided into three compartments. What are they and their function?

A

Smooth ER- detoxifies toxins and for lipid synthesis. Without ribosomes on the cytoplasmic face

This leaflet faces the cytoplasm of the cell
Protoplasmic leaflet
25
This leaflet faces the lumen of the ER
Exocytoplasmic leaflet
26
Proteins targeted for the nucleus, mitochondria, or perioxisomes are synthesized on?...
Free ribosomes and then released into the cytosol
27
Proteins for secretion or targeted to the Golgi, lysomes, ER, or PM are synthesized on?...
Ribosomes bound for the RER
28
Proteins targeted to lysosomes, secretion, or Golgi apparatus are transported in vesicles that bud off?...
The transitional ER
29
Proteins that are destined to be attached to the PM have what attached to their carboxyl end? Where will they face?
GPI (a really long word) anchors. Luminal leaflet on the outside of the cell
30
What directs correctly folded proteins to the transitional ER?
A folding sensor
31
A folding sensor will add a glucose residue to the misfolded protein and send it where for another attempt at folding?
Calreticulin (a chaperone )
32
Severely misfolded proteins at sent back through the translocon and are degraded in proteosome a located?...
In the cytoplasm
33
Where are phospholipids synthesized and what does it mean for any new phospholipids?

35
What are the two faces of the Golgi?
Cis-entry Trans-exit
36
What are the four functions of the Golgi apparatus?
