Question
Chapter 5, Problem 28RQ
Summary Introduction
To find: The location of sugar “tails” of proteins.
Introduction: The transport of proteins from the lumen of endoplasmic reticulum and Golgi bodies involves the addition of sugars in the integral membrane as glycoproteins.
Summary Introduction
To find: The reason for the location of sugar “tails” of proteins at the extracellular fluid.
Introduction: The sugar tails are present at the extracellular fluid after they inserted into the membrane.

What four components are required for the translocation of proteins across the endoplasmic reticulum membrane?
Polypeptides which are normally synthesized in the endoplasmic reticulum are about20 amino acids longer when they are synthesized by ribosomes not attached to the endoplasmicreticulum, What is the significance of this increase in length?
