#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

The SRP is made up of six proteins bound to a 300-nucleotide RNA, which acts as a scaffold for the hexamer.

Once the ER signal sequence emerges from the ribosome, it is bound by a signal recognition particle (SRP)

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

The SRP and the nascent polypeptide chain–ribosome complex bind to the SRP receptor in the ER membrane. This interaction is strengthened by the binding of GTP to both the SRP and its receptor.

#Unit 2. Cellular Organization

Once the SRP and its receptor have targeted a ribosome synthesizing a secretory protein to the ER membrane, the ribosome and nascent polypeptide chain are rapidly transferred to the translocon.

The translocon was first identified through mutations in the yeast gene encoding a protein called Sec61α
