    1. mRNA attaches to a ribosome on the RER producing a protein
  • 2. the RER folds and processes the proteins which are then sent in vesicles to the golgi body
  • 3. the vesicles fuse with the Golgi apparatus, releasing the proteins into the golgi, the golgi apparatus modifies the proteins, preparing them for secretion
  • 4. the modified proteins then leave the golgi apparatus in vesicles
  • 5. if protein is being secreted it fuses with the plasma membrane and goes through exocytosis
