The initial response of the cell to misfolded protein accumulation in the ER is _________. If that does not clear up the problem the cell will then initiate _________ and if that is not successful then the cell will initiate _______________.

Flag this Question

The process by which misfolded proteins in the ER are transported to the cytosol, labeled with ubiquitin and then degraded by proteosomes is called _______________.

What is the purpose of chaperones?

In the cytosol

Explanation / Answer

1. a. In the cytosol

Protein synthesis generally occurs in rough endoplastic reticulum, but most mitochondrial and chloroplast proteins are made outside the membrane that is in the cytoplasm, i.e. in the ribosomes that are not attched to endoplasmic reticulum.
