Q
Proteins synthesis steps
A
- mRNA copy of the instructions (gene) is made in the nucleus
- mRNA leaves the nucleus through a nuclear pore
- mRNA attaches to a ribosome on the rough ER and the ribosome reads the instructions to make the protein and assembles it
- Protein is ‘pinched’ off in vesicles and travel towards Golgi Apparatus
- vesicles fuse with Golgi apparatus
- Golgi processes and packages proteins ready for release
- Vesicles pinch off Golgi and move towards cell surface membrane
- Vesicles fuse with cell surface membrane
- Cell surface membrane opens to release protein outside.
