Proteins Flashcards
1
Q
What is the arrangement of proteins in the bilayer of the membrane?
A
-scattered
2
Q
What are the two types of proteins that are in the bilayer?
A
-Extrinsic proteins
-Intrinsic proteins
3
Q
Where are extrinsic proteins found
A
-either surface of the bilayer
4
Q
What do extrinsic proteins provide?
A
-structural support and they form recognition sites by identifying cells and receptor sites for hormone attachment
5
Q
Where are intrinsic proteins found?
A
-across both bilayers
6
Q
What do the intrinsic proteins provide?
A
-transport proteins that use active or passive transport to move molecules and ions across the cell membrane
