The proteins that are embedded in the lipid bilayer are called ____
|
|
External Proteins
|
|
|
Internal Proteins
|
|
|
Integral Proteins
|
|
|
Peripheral Proteins
|
Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -These proteins are called integral membrane proteins. How a membrane protein associates with the lipid bilayer reflects the function of the protein. Only transmembrane proteins can function on both sides of the bilayer or transport molecules across it.
Detailed explanation-2: -Integral proteins are embedded in the phospholipid bilayer, and also called transmembrane proteins. Often times these integral proteins serve as channels through which molecules move across the cell membrane.
Detailed explanation-3: -Answer and Explanation: Integral proteins are also called intrinsic proteins which remains embedded in the phospholipid bilayer.
