-Function in protein processing and lipid synthesis

2
New cards

On ribosomes in the cytoplasm (i.e. either free in the cytosol of on the RER)

3
New cards

Where does protein synthesis begin?

On ribosomes that are free in the cytosol

4
New cards

Are proteins ready to function once synthesized?

No; proteins need to fold and typically go through a variety of processing events as well

Protein Sorting

Some proteins can synthesis free in the cytosol or on membrane bound ribosomes and release into either in the cytosol or ER lumen where they are later taken to an organelles to fulfill its function.

11
New cards

Secretory Pathway

RER > Golgi > Secretory Vesicle > Cell Exterior

12
New cards

Pulse Chase Experiment

Studies the pathway of secreted proteins by labeling new synthesized proteins with radioactive amino acids

1. Pancreatic cells were exposed to AA, then were found in the RER

2. Incubated with nonradioactive AA the cells were found in the Golgi Apparatus

3. After longer chase period the cells went from the Golgi Apparatus to secretory vesicles.

4. Secretory vesicles fuse with plasma membrane to be released outside the cell

13

Protein Targeting

How protein are targeted to ER

14
New cards

Signal Sequence

At AA N-terminus of the polypeptide chain (polymer of AA)

Short stretch of hydrophobic AA that are cleaved from the polypeptide chain during its transfer into the ER lumen

Span about 20 AA

15
New cards

Cotranslational Targeting

1. As the signal sequence emerges from the ribosome, it is recognized and bound by the signal recognition particle (SRP)

2. The SRP escorts the complex to the ER membrane where it binds to the SRP receptor

3. The SRP, is released, the ribosome binds to the translocon and insertion of the signal sequence opens the translocon.

4.Translation resumes and the signal sequence is cleaved by signal peptidase

5. Continued translation drive the translocation of the growing polypeptide chain across the membrane.

6. The complete polypeptide chain is released within the ER lumen.

22
New cards

Lipid Synthesis

Happens in the SER

Membrane lipids such as phospholipids are synthesized by using:

-on pre-existing membranes

-using water-soluble cytosolic precursors (hydrophobic)

Lipids get to other membranes in the cell by: Transporting in the vesicles or by carrier proteins

23
New cards

Phospholipid Synthesis

1. Glycerol-3-Phosphate is synthesized on the cytosolic side of ER membrane from water soluble precursors.

2. Fatty acids are first transferred from coenzyme A carrier to glycerol-3-phosphate by membrane-bound enzymes, and the result of phosphatidic in inserted into the membrane.

3. A phosphate then converts phosphatidic acid to diacylglycerol

4. Catalyzation of a additional different polar heads occur via changing of glycerol by enzymes.

24
New cards

Bilayer

Since the membrane is a bilayer more phospholipids are produced on one side than the other

25
New cards

Flippases

By catalyzing the rapid translocation of phospholipids across the ER membrane, the flippases ensure even growth of both halves of the bilayer

26
New cards

Carbohydrates modification is important in targeting of proteins to lysosomes because the chain carries information

47
New cards

N-linked glycosylation (1)

Occurs in golgi

The N-linked oligosaccharides of glycoproteins transported from the ER and are further modified by an ordered sequence of reaction catalyzed by enzymes in different compartments of the Golgi.

48
New cards

N-linked glycosylation (2)

For lysosomal targeting occurs in the cis golgi

Proteins destined for incorporation into lysosomes are specifically recognized and modified by the addition of phosphate groups to the number 6 position of mannose residues. In the first step of the reaction, N-acetylglucosmine phosphates are transferred to mannose residues from UDP-N-acetylglucosamine group is then removed, leaving mannose-6-phosphate.
