Figures & data

Figure 1.  The three states of ribosome-translocon complex. (A) The ribosome-translocon channel is occupied by the polypeptide chain being translocated. (B) After the completion of translocation, the polypeptide leaves the channel empty. In this state, the complex allows the passage of small molecules. (C) The pore is closed again once the ribosome has been released from the translocon.
