Best Answer

For a cell to synthesise proteins, there are a few steps involved.

Firstly, the DNA which codes for that protein would be transcribed to form mRNA. The mature mRNA would then be transported out of the nucleus to the cytosol of the cells. Here, ribosomes will translate the mRNA to form polypeptide chain. This is unprocessed protein.

From there, the unprocessed protein may go to the rough ER to be folded into its functional structure. Here, it undergoes glycosylation. From the rough ER, it may then be transported to the Golgi apparatus to undergo phosphorylation and sugar residues modification. The processed protein could then be transported out in vesicles to be utilised by the cell or by other cells.
