What part does SRP (signal recognition protein) play in the binding of ribosomes to the endoplasmic reticulum? a. It binds to the mRNA first and then to the ER receptor which closes a channel. b. SRP binds first to the signal peptide on the polypeptide being synthesized and then to a receptor on the ER which opens a channel. c. It plays no real part in the binding of ribosomes to the ER. d.
