Let us make an in-depth study of the protein targeting. After reading this article you will learn about: 1. Introduction to Protein Targeting 2. Signal Sequence 3. Transport of Proteins into ER 4. Signal Sequence Recognition Mechanism 5. Role of Golgi Complex in Protein Transportation 6. Transport of Proteins from Golgi to Lysosomes 7. Targeting of Proteins to Mitochondria and [...]

Read this article to learn about the protein targeting in bacteria and eukaryotes. Proteins that must be targeted within the cell must be intercepted early during synthesis so that this can happen correctly. As a protein is being synthesized, decisions must be taken about sending it to the correct location in the cell where it will be required. The information [...]
