The newly formed (nascent) protein [amino acid] chain - as it exits the Ribosome Protein Bio-Assembly Miracle - is directed to either the exterior of the endoplasmic reticulum - also known as The Cytoplasm - or to the interior of the endoplasmic reticulum.

As it is extensively known that there are several types of {cytoplasmically periferal} ER, there are sequences of the nascent protein chain, called leader sequences, that direct the nascent proteins to their Cytoplasmic ER destination, - where either the leader sequence will be removed and the remaining protein segment activated, or a portion only of it is removed and the location process continues as above until the protein reaches it's Bio-desired active location.

When the protein reaches its destination its processing is completed and it is folded into its natural three dimensional conformation.

Further Aggregation may and often does occur.

Amino acids may be broken down by a process called deamination. This results in formation of NH2 and a carboxlic acd .This acid may be converted into sugar or fatty acid or may be used in respiration .
