MeSH Heading: Secretory Pathway
Tree Number(s): G03.143.925; G04.468.580
Unique ID: D055571
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D055571
Scope Note: A series of sequential intracellular steps involved in the transport of proteins (such as hormones and enzymes) from the site of synthesis to outside the cell. The pathway involves membrane-bound compartments through which the newly synthesized proteins undergo POST-TRANSLATIONAL MODIFICATIONS, packaging, storage, or transportation to the PLASMA MEMBRANE for secretion.
Entry Term(s): Secretion Pathway; Secretion Process; Secretory Process
