put the following steps for making a protein that will be exported from the cell in order for a eukaryotic cell, beginning with the first step at the top of the list
1. In the nucleus, genes in the DNA that encode the membrane protein are copied into a messanger RNA (mRNA) 2. The mRNA exits the nucleus though ER and produces a protein, which exits the ER in a vesicle. 3.The mRNA binds to a ribosome of the rough ER and produces a protein, which exits the ER in a vesicle 4.The vesicle delivers the protein to the Golgi apparatus, where the protein folds and is packaged in a vesicle for export from the cell. 5.The vesicle fuses with the cell membrane and releases he protein to the extracellular environment.
