Preferred Name

signal peptide

Definitions
An immature protein part that, prior to its removal from the N or C terminus, directs the transport of a protein for membrane insertion or for secretion. The signal peptide can be cleaved either co- or post-translationally. For this reason, we do not use the derives_from relation when defining protein forms lacking the signal peptide (because the precursor form might not yet exist at the time of removal).
Synonyms
signal_peptide
targeting signal
localization signal
transit peptide
signal sequence
