Do Proteins Travel Through The ER?

Do Proteins Travel Through The ER? Proteins can be translocated into the ER either during their synthesis on membrane-bound ribosomes (cotranslational translocation) or after their translation has been completed on free ribosomes in the cytosol (posttranslational translocation). What does the smooth ER do to proteins? Endoplasmic reticulum is a network of membranes inside a cell

Do Proteins Go Through The Smooth ER?

Do Proteins Go Through The Smooth ER? Do Proteins go through the smooth ER? As discussed below, there are two distinct types of ER that perform different functions within the cell. The rough ER, which is covered by ribosomes on its outer surface, functions in protein processing. The smooth ER is not associated with ribosomes
