In an intriguing series of experiments carried out many years ago, a common scientific belief, feted by no less than three Nobel prizes, was brought into question. The experiments however were not about what proteins do, but how they are moved, in particular how they are moved from where they are made to where they act. The observations were about proteins--the molecules that the genetic code specifies and that are in one way or another central to all of life's activities.
The controversial experiments demonstrated that to the contrary individual protein molecules cross the relevant membranes as a result The results of these studies conflicted with the standard view of how this happens, and thus became controversial.The standard view, the vesicle theory of protein secretion, envisions proteins being carried within and out of cells en masse in membrane-bound sacs or vesicles.
