A review on protein production and secretion in eukaryoytes

Anotace: Protein secretion is an important process in any living organism, and this is mediated by numerous steps and several cellular components. This review provides an overview of protein production from nascent polypeptide synthesis stage to secretion of these proteins into extracellular space by vesicular sorting. This review also provides insights on the factors involved in ER and Golgi in this pathway and their role. It also covers responsibility of translocons and chaperones in stress response pathways such as UPR and ERAD. Beyond all these a series of quality control checks are performed by cellular machinery to ensure the quality of protein delivered. So essentially this review covers all the pathways involved from initiation of protein expression to secretion.
