procollagen is formed at which level
-ER
-GOLGI
decks says ER and in kaplan its GOLGI

- Three peptide chains are formed (2 alpha-1 and 1 alpha-2 chain) in ribosomes along the Rough Endoplasmic Reticulum (RER). These peptide chains (known as preprocollagen) have registration peptides on each end; and a signal peptide is also attached to each
- Peptide chains are sent into the lumen of the RER
- Signal Peptides are cleaved inside the RER and the chains are now known as procollagen
- Hydroxylation of lysine and proline amino acids occurs inside the lumen. This process is dependent on Ascorbic Acid (Vitamin C) as a cofactor
- Glycosylation of specific hydroxylated amino acid occurs
- Triple helical structure is formed inside the RER
- Procollagen is shipped to the
thank u so much
one more question
in salivary glands,secretory granules are exocytosed from the apical cytoplasm,under
-sympathetic influence
-parasympathetic influence
golgi apparatus, where it is packaged and secreted by exocytosis
Salivation is parasympathetically mediated.thank u so much
