Scientists have found that the fungus Penicillium brefeldianum produces a toxin known as Brefeldin A (BFA), which is able to block transport from the rough ER to the Golgi apparatus. These special properties have made BFA interesting to scientists who study molecular biology. -If a cell were exposed to a BFA what would happen to it?
-The sorting of proteins would be stopped.
-The synthesis of proteins would be stopped.
-The proper folding of proteins would be stopped.
-The packaging of proteins into vesicles would be stopped.
