Question

Cells are infected with a vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) strain in which a viral gene (VSVG) is fused to the green fluorescent protein gene. When the chimeric protein is synthesized, what pathway does it follow from synthesis until it leaves the cell?

Answer 1

Options:

1. RER, Golgi complex, plasma membrane, viral envelopes
2. RER, Golgi complex, viral envelopes, plasma membrane
3. Golgi complex, RER, plasma membrane, viral envelopes.
4. RER, Golgi complex, mitochondria, plasma membrane, viral envelopes
5. RER, mitochondria, Golgi complex, plasma membrane, viral envelopes

Answer:

• Option-(5): RER, mitochondria, Golgi complex, plasma membrane, viral envelopes                  

Explanation:

• The cellular organelles are well arranged in a given systematic order to execute the process for the synthesis of the chimeric protein inside the living being body.
