pathway of a polypeptide
how a polypeptide becomes a proteinA synthesized polypeptide becomes a functional transmembrane protein by following a series of steps inside the cell. It begins in the nucleus, travels to the endoplasmic reticulum, where it is released into the lumen, and is packed into transport vesicles to make its way through the golgi apparatus, and finally exists the cell through the process of exocytosis or using a lysosome.
