Which of the following sequences represent a possible pathway in the production of a secretory protein?

  • Rough ER → Secretory vesicle → Ribosome → Golgi apparatus

  • Ribosome → Rough ER → Golgi apparatus → Secretory vesicle

  • Secretory vesicle → Golgi apparatus → Ribosomes → Rough ER

  • Rough ER → Ribosomes → Secretory vesicles → Golgi appratus


D.

Rough ER → Ribosomes → Secretory vesicles → Golgi appratus

Ribosome is the place where protein synthesis takes place →rough ER produces proteins and helps them fold property → Golgi bodies does packaging of proteins → secretory vesicles does the transport of proteins.
