Protein targeting is the process by which proteins are directed to specific locations after synthesis. Signal sequences on proteins guide their transport, as discovered by Gunter Blobel who won the Nobel Prize for this work. Protein targeting is important because proteins must be sorted to the correct locations, like organelles, to properly function. Eukaryotic protein targeting is complex due to many intracellular compartments and can involve posttranslational modifications and receptor-mediated transport mechanisms. Correct protein sorting is vital for cell function and errors can cause disease.

- 2. •What is Protein Targeting? •Why protein is targeted? •Where it occurs?
- 4. signal sequences • First by Gunter Blobel (1970) ,won the Nobel Prize (1999) for his work on protein targeting. • Directs a protein to its appropriate location after synthesis. • Signals vary from 13 to 36 amino acid residues. a. About 10 to 15 hydrophobic amino acid residues. b. One or more positively charged residues near N-terminus. c. A short cleavage sequence often including(polar A.A) Ala.

- 13. Summary• Protein targeting is necessary for proteins that are destined to work outside the cytoplasm. • Requires sorting signals that direct their transport from the cytosol. • Correct sorting is crucial for the cell; errors can lead to diseases. • Protein targeting is more complex in eukaryotes because of the presence of many intracellular compartments. • targeting either of two ways depending on the protein …. 1) Co translational translocation . 2) Posttranslational translocation .
