A. They will be secreted.
B. The are post-translationally targeted to their final destination.
C. They are initially post-translationally inserted into the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) lumen.
D. They are co-translationally inserted into the ER lumen.
1b.) Which of the following accurately describes targeting proteins to the mitochondrial matrix or the nucleus?
A. Both mitochondrial matrix and nuclear proteins are co-translationally targeted to their destinations.
