Question:

Types of Integral Membrane Proteins and be able to draw them schematically?

Author: Shay 1vcc



Answer:

Types I and II have a single transmembrane helix; the amino-terminal domain is outside the cell in type I proteins and inside in type II. Type III proteins have multiple transmembrane helices in a single polypeptide. In type IV proteins, transmembrane domains of several different polypeptides assemble to form a channel through the membrane. Type V proteins are held to the bilayer primarily by covalently linked lipids. Type VI proteins have both transmembrane helices and lipid anchors.
