Q

Protein Trafficking

A

This process is known as exocytosis.

1 Proteins synthesised
2 Protein enters rER cisternae
3 Protein is folded into 3D shape
4 Vesicles containing proteins pinch off rER
5 Vesicles travel to Golgi Body
6 Vesicles fuse with Golgi Body
7 Protein is modified
8 Vesicles containing modified proteins pinch off the Golgi Body
9 Vesicles move to cell/organelle membrane
10 Vesicles fuse with cell/organelle membrane
11 Contents of vesicles leave cell
