Rough Er

The rough endoplasmic reticulum (rough ER) is a membrane-bound network in eukaryotic cells that synthesizes and processes proteins destined for secretion, membranes, or specific organelles. Its cytosolic surface is studded with ribosomes, which translate messenger RNA and feed emerging polypeptide chains through translocons into the ER lumen or surrounding membrane; within the ER, proteins begin folding and may undergo chemical modifications. Transport vesicles then deliver these proteins to the Golgi apparatus for further processing and sorting. Studying the rough ER helps explain protein trafficking, membrane biogenesis, cellular organization, and diseases caused by protein-folding or secretory-system dysfunction.

Directing Proteins to the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum

0 Views •

2023

The organelle-specific signaling sequences direct proteins synthesized in the cytosol to their final destination like ER, mitochondria, peroxisomes, etc. Some of the proteins directed to ER are then trafficked via vesicles to other organelles within the cell or the extracellular environment through the Golgi complex. For example, the rough ER synthesizes soluble proteins for transportation to the lysosomes or secretion out of the cell. It can also synthesize transmembrane proteins that can...
