Co-translational insertion and folding of transmembrane helices in an integral membrane protein

Co-translational insertion and folding of transmembrane helices in an integral membrane protein
Previous Image | Next Image
Description: Some parts of the protein (in this case, the loops) are conducted across the bilayer through the translocon; transmembrane portions exit the translocon and remain embedded in the bilayer.

The transmembrane helices fold after they are inserted.
