title: Protein transport and compartmentation in yeast.
abstract: Many newly synthesized proteins must be translocated across one or more membranes to reach their destination in the individual organelles or membrane systems. Translocation, mostly requiring an energy source, a signal on the protein itself, loose conformation of the protein and the presence of cytosolic and/or membrane receptor-like proteins, is often accompanied by covalent modifications of transported proteins. In this review I discuss these aspects of protein transport via the classical secretory pathway and/or special translocation mechanisms in the unicellular eukaryotic organism Saccharomyces cerevisiae.
