ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -Some globular proteins found in cell membranes act as transport channels for ions and other molecules.

Detailed explanation-2: -In biochemistry, globular proteins or spheroproteins are spherical ("globe-like") proteins and are one of the common protein types (the others being fibrous, disordered and membrane proteins). Globular proteins are somewhat water-soluble (forming colloids in water), unlike the fibrous or membrane proteins.

Detailed explanation-3: -Spherical proteins are also known as globular proteins or hemoproteins. They are proteins that are spherical in shape. Fibrous, disordered, and membrane proteins are the other common protein shapes. Globular proteins, unlike fibrous or membrane proteins, are generally water-soluble (forming colloids in water).

Detailed explanation-4: -Globular proteins are categorized into four structural classes: all-, all-, +, and / (Levitt and Chothia, 1976).
