Transcript Document
Protein degradation rate varies 100x
Most have motifs marking them for polyubiquitination:
taken to proteosome & destroyed
Other signals for selective degradation include PEST &
KFERQ
• PEST : found in many rapidly degraded proteins
• Deletion increases t1/2 10x, adding PEST drops t1/2 10x
• Sometimes targets poly-Ub
• Recent yeast study doesn’t support general role
• KFERQ: cytosolic proteins with KFERQ are selectively
taken up by lysosomes in chaperone-mediated
autophagy under conditions of nutritional or oxidative
stress.

PROTEIN TARGETING
All proteins are made with an “address” which determines
their final cellular location
Addresses are motifs within proteins
PROTEIN TARGETING
All proteins are made with “addresses” which determine
their location
Addresses are motifs within proteins
Remain in cytoplasm unless contain information sending
it elsewhere
PROTEIN TARGETING
Targeting sequences are both necessary & sufficient to
send reporter proteins to new compartments.

1. Tat: for periplasmic redox proteins & thylakoid

Sec pathway
SecB binds preprotein as it emerges from rib &
prevents folding
Guides it to SecA, which drives it through SecYEG
into periplasm using ATP

•
Sec pathway part deux
SRP binds preprotein as it emerges from rib & stops
translation
Guides rib to FtsY
FtsY & SecA guide it to SecYEG , where it resumes
translation & inserts protein into membrane as it is
made
Periplasmic proteins with the correct signals (exposed after
cleaving signal peptide) are exported by XcpQ system
PROTEIN TARGETING
Protein synthesis always
begins on free ribosomes
in cytoplasm
2 Protein Targeting pathways
Protein synthesis always
begins on free ribosomes
in cytoplasm
1) proteins of plastids,
mitochondria, peroxisomes
and nuclei are imported
post-translationally

Protein synthesis always
begins on free ribosomes
In cytoplasm
1) proteins of plastids,
mitochondria, peroxisomes
and nuclei are imported
post-translationally
made in cytoplasm, then
imported when complete

Protein synthesis always

In cytoplasm
1) Post -translational: proteins

peroxisomes and nuclei
2) Endomembrane system

co-translationally
2 Protein Targeting pathways
1) Post -translational
2) Co-translational: Endomembrane system proteins are
imported co-translationally
inserted in RER
as they are made
2 pathways for Protein Targeting
1) Post -translational
2) Co-translational: Endomembrane system proteins are

SIGNAL HYPOTHESIS
Protein synthesis always begins on free ribosomes in
cytoplasm
in vivo always see
mix of free and
attached ribosomes
SIGNAL HYPOTHESIS
Protein synthesis begins on free ribosomes in cytoplasm
endomembrane proteins have "signal sequence"that
directs them to RER

endomembrane proteins have "signal sequence"that
directs them to RER
“attached” ribosomes are
tethered to RER by

SIGNAL HYPOTHESIS
• Protein synthesis begins on free ribosomes in cytoplasm
• Endomembrane proteins have "signal sequence"that
directs them to RER
• SRP (Signal Recognition Peptide) binds signal sequence
when it pops out of ribosome & swaps GDP for GTP
