Abstract
This review focuses on studies dealing with the subcellular locations of the sites of synthesis of mitochondrial and chloroplast proteins and with the transport of these proteins into the organelles. The mechanism of transport of organelle proteins across the membranes is determined primarily by whether the cytoplasmic ribosomes synthesizing the proteins are free or membrane-bound. Protein transport into chloroplast compartments is evidently determined by the localization of the receptors.Keywords
