Co-translational insertion and folding of transmembrane helices in an integral membrane protein

Description
Some parts of the protein (in this case, the loops) are conducted across the bilayer through the translocon; transmembrane portions exit the translocon and remain embedded in the bilayer.

The transmembrane helices fold after they are inserted.
