Polypeptide chains undergo some modifications before they become fully functional. Some of these modifications include: proteolytic cleavage, lipidation and glycosylation. Proteolytic cleavage refers to the removal of some amino acids from a polypeptide chain by proteases in order for the protein to become active. An example of a substance that is modified through this process is insulin.
1. Nucleus step1: DNA is transcribed into mRNA
2. Ribosome step2: mRNA is translated into protein
3. Endoplasmic Reticulum step 3: Newly synthesised proteins are transported.
4. Golgi apparatus Step 4: Proteins are modified then transported away
In Golgi body or apparatus, the proteins are modified, sorted and packaging occurs for secretion.
