====Signal peptide==== {{main article|Signal peptide}} The N-terminal signal peptide is recognized by the [[signal recognition particle]] (SRP) and results in the targeting of the protein to the [[secretory pathway]]. In [[eukaryote|eukaryotic cells]], these proteins are synthesized at the rough [[endoplasmic reticulum]]. In [[prokaryote|prokaryotic cells]], the proteins are exported across the [[cell membrane]]. In [[chloroplast]]s, signal peptides target proteins to the [[thylakoid]]s.
