protein targeting to chloroplast
id: GO:0045036
name: protein targeting to chloroplast
namespace: biological_process
type: go
obsolete: False
Description: The process of directing proteins towards the chloroplast, usually using signals contained within the protein. Imported proteins are synthesized as cytosolic precursors containing N-terminal uptake-targeting sequences that direct each protein to its correct subcompartment and are subsequently cleaved.
