Q

4 pathways for vesicles from golgi

A

– Integral membrane proteins / membrane phospholipid
– Continuous secretory pathway e.g. extracellular matrix proteins
– Stimulated secretory pathway, stored vesicles e.g. insulin
– To form lysosomes

Q

what does NLS do and need

A

bind to importin
transported through nuclear pore
requires G-protein Ran and hydrolysis of GTP

Q

what are lysosomal proteins tagged with and what does it do

A

mannose-6-phosphate in golgi

direct proteins into transport vesicles, which become the lysosome
