protein synthesis by free ribosomes and membrane bound ribosomes
Free ribosomes in the cytosol are:
soluble
protein synthesis by free ribosomes and membrane bound ribosomes
Where are FREE PROTEIN in the cytosol exported to?
Cytosol, Nucleus, Mitochondria, Chloroplasts, Peroxisomes
Where are membrane-bound ribosomes located?
The rough ER
Where are the PROTEIN in the RER Lumen exported to?
Golgi, and then from there they travel to endosomes, and then lysosomes.
OR
Golgi, and then they are either exported into the plasma membrane or as extracellular proteins (secretory vesicles).
requires vesicualr transport
Where does translocation move proteins to?
lumen or memrbane of organelle
transport across membrane
Where does gated transport import into?
the nucleus
What do membrane-bound ribosomes do?
RER
They initiate protein sythenis in cytsol and complete it in RER
AKA: co-translational import
What is a SRP
singal recognition particle
It recognizes N-term ER signal sequence
Protein destination:
transmemrbane transport + vesicular transport
What do signal sequences do?
direct proteins to correct compartments
Singal sequences importing into the RER are rich in:
hydrophobic amino acids
Singal sequences importing into the nucleus are rich in:
postiivlty charged amino acids
What is the nuclear envelope?
A double membrane bound organelle
Nuclear envelope
Outer membrane:
continous with ER
Nuclear envelope
Inner memrbane:
Associated with nuclear lamina (made of lamins IF)
What is the Nuclear pore complex?
Protein channels in.out transport using nucleoporins
NPC
Simple diffusion transports:
small hydrophillic molecules
NPC
Gated Transport , transports:
Large macromolecules
(RNA, folded proteins)
NPC - GATED TRANSPORT
Cytosol → nucleus , uses what signal?
nuclear localization signal
NPC - GATED TRANSPORT
What is the transport receptor used in Cytosol → nucleus?
IMPORTIN
NPC - GATED TRANSPORT
Nucleus → cytosol, signal used?
Nucleaor export signal
NPC - GATED TRANSPORT
What is the transport receptor used in Nucleus → cytosol ?
EXPORTIN
Ran-GEF in nucleus promotes what exchange?
GDP → GTP
Ran-GAP in the cytoplasm promotes what hydrolysis?
GTP → GDP
