Summary

Description
English: Schematic representation of thylakoid protein targeting pathways:
  • Toc and Tic: translocon of outer and inner envelope membrane of chloroplasts, respectively
  • 1. SRP (signal recognition particle) pathway; required GTP and pH gradient as energy source
  • 2. ΔpH/Tat pathway; requires pH gradient as energy source
  • 3. Sec (secretory system) pathway; required ATP as energy source
  • not shown: spontaneous insertion of transmembrane proteins requiring no energy source
Chloroplast targeting peptide shown in yellow is cleaved off by a processing protease after entering the chloroplast. Thylakoid targeting peptide shown in blue may be cleaved off (lumenal proteins) or not (membrane proteins).

This biology image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “Thylakoid targeting.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.
