lys Two strategies for protein degradation 1) Send the protein to a degradative compartment 2) selective degradation of individual molecules
Cellular protein degradation highly processive 5-8 a.a. protein extremely specific same cellular compartment, half life can vary from 2 min to many days
Protein steady state kinetics the steady state can be due to high or low k’s
synthesis degradation protein Protein steady state in vivo to change the concentration of a protein the cell can alter either process
