Q

Rough ER has ribosomes on ___. Ribosomes translocate _____ into ____. ER is where ____, ___, and ___ occurs.

A

Rough ER has ribosomes on its cytoplasmic face. Ribosomes translocate proteins into the RER. The ER is where protein modification, proper protein folding, and assembly of protein subunits occurs.

Q

Membrane bound translation steps.

A

(1) Signal on peptide bound by SRP (signal recognition protein)
(2) GTP binds to complex halting translation
(3) Complex goes and binds to SRP receptor on ER membrane
(4) Protein continues to be translated and is translocated into ER lumen
(5) GTP hydrolyzed and SRP released and recycled
(6) Protein continues to be translated and signal sequence cleaved off by ER signal peptidase.
(7) Ribosome disassociates

Q

What dictates orientation of protein on ER membrane?

A

Location of start-stop signal sequence that directs protein to ER and halts insertion into ER – in particular the location of Lys in relation to sequence.

Q

N-linked glycolysation occurs in? On? Uses ___ as a holder of the oligosaccharide.

A

N-linked glycolysation occurs in RER. On all transmembrane proteins. On first Asn to enter ER lumen. Uses dolichol as holder of oligosaccharide.
