25
Channel Proteins
allow passage of molecules through membrane via a channel in the protein
26
Carrier Proteins
combine with substance to the transported and assist passage of molecules through membrane
27
Cell Recognition Proteins
glycoproteins that help fight and recognize foreign substaces
28
Receptor Protein
Bind with specific molecules and allowed cell to resppond to signals from other cells
29
Enzymatic Proteins
carry out metabolic reactions directly
30
Junction Proteins
attach adjacent cells
