Draw a picture showing the path a secreted protein takes from synthesis until it exits the cell.
Steps in the secretion of a
protein:
1. Transcription of the gene in the nucleus
2. Export of mRNA into the cytoplasm
3. Translation by ribosomes on RER
4. Transport into the ER lumen and post-translational
modifications
5. Transport into the Golgi lumen and post-translational
modifications
6. Production of secretory vesicles from the Golgi trans-face
7. The fusion of vesicles to the plasma membrane and secretion of
the protein
