The recycling of ribosomes at the so-called endoplasmic reticulum (ER) has now been demonstrated by a team led by Professor Roland Beckmann, Dr Thomas Becker, and Ivan Penchev from LMU’s Gene ...

The signal sequence stops translation and directs the ribosomes — which are carrying the unfinished proteins — to dock with ER proteins before finishing their work. Translation then ...

The endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is a compartment (organelle) in eukaryotic cells that consists of membrane sacs called cisternae. Because of the bound ribosomes, the 'rough' ER is the site of ...
