In an HIV-infected cell producing HIV virus particles, the viral glycoprotein is expressed on the plasma membrane. How do the viral glycoproteins get to the plasma membrane?
A) They are synthesized on ribosomes on the plasma membrane.
B) They are synthesized by ribosomes in the rough ER, and arrive at the plasma membrane in the membrane of secretory vesicles.
C) They are synthesized on free cytoplasmic ribosomes, and then inserted into the plasma membrane.
D) They are synthesized by ribosomes in the rough ER, secreted from the cell, and inserted into the plasma membrane from the outside.
E) They are synthesized by ribosomes on the HIV viral membrane, which fuses with the plasma membrane from inside the cell.
