  • Front
  • Back
Passageway or tunnel through the membrane for some water soluble compounds. Passive transport
Channel proteins
Transmit information into the cell and are receptors for hormones and other chemical messengers
Receptor Proteins
Proteins with a carbohydrate chain sticking out above the membrane. They label cells as our own so our body doesn't attack them
Surface cell markers/Glycoproteins
Used to transport Ions and other molecules across the membrane, active transport
Transport proteins
What are the 4 main cell surface proteins?
Channel proteins, receptor proteins, glycoproteins, and transport proteins
