- | Nuclear-encoded chloroplast proteins are synthesized in the cytosol with an N-terminal transit peptide. These proteins then traverse the chloroplast envelope membranes with the help of translocon machinery in the outer and inner envelope membranes called TOC and TIC, respectively. Tic40 is one of the essential components of TIC machinery. | + | Nuclear-encoded chloroplast proteins are synthesized in the cytosol with an N-terminal transit peptide.
