Abstract
DR. BLOBEL: In an average eukaryotic cell there are as many as 1 billion protein molecules, 10,000 to 50,000 of which are separate species. These various species of protein fall into groups which have similar topology such as lysosomal proteins, peroxisomal proteins and those which are found exclusively in the mitochondrial matrix or the intermembrane space of the chloroplast stroma, etc.
