Carbonic anhydrase is an enzyme found in the cytoplasm of a cell. You genetically modified the gene which produces the mRNA for carbonic anhydrase to now include a signal sequence. What will happen when carbonic anhydrase initially binds to a ribosome

Explanation:

Carbonic anhydrase modification is a promising strategy for improving the potency and stability of carbonic anhydrase, which is used to expedite CO2 uptake from flue gases. Carbonic anhydrase can be genetically engineered to increase CO2 conversion, absorption of CO2 from a gaseous state into bioactive compounds, and mineral synthesis.

When carbonic anhydrase attaches to a ribosome, the carbonic anhydrase will now be synthesized at first by the free ribosome, after which the ribosome will become a bound ribosome and the protein will be present in the rough Endoplasmic reticulum when the synthesis is complete.
