Which type of protein targeting is bidirectional? Why is this important?
|
Nuclear transport.
This allows for proteins to rapidly move from cytoplasm into nucleus or vice-versa without disrupting folded state of protein. One important reason for this is the cell can rapidly alter its gene expression in response to internal or external cues (because the cell bypasses the process of new protein synthesis). |
