You have identified a bacterial protein that has retained the starting fMet in its protein sequence. Which of the following is likely true of this protein?
◦ It is likely nonfunctional, since bacteria use posttranslational cleavage of fMet to make functional proteins.
◦ It will show improper protein sorting and will likely remain in the ER.
◦ It will be not be able to be chemically modified, so it will be sent to the Golgi for secretion.
◦ It will be a functional bacterial protein, since all functional proteins must begin with fMet.
◦ It will likely form a disulfide bond with a second peptide chain, forming a protein complex.
