anchoring ensyme |
membrane spanning alpha helix holds the blood cel protein in the membrane and alternatively hydrophobic domain cannsert into the lipid interior or the membrane and locate a periheral protein on the membrane surface, poast translational addition of lipids. |
|
how is lipid bilayer made and maintained |
terminal signal sequence of amino acids directs proteins t the ER, inserting protein into the lipid bilayer. once inserted into the lipid layer the protein is then transported to its final destination in vesicles. as its destination the vesicle carrying the membrane protein duses with the target membrane. during vesicle transport sugars are often added to the region of the protein that will be facing the cell exterior. thus protein facing outside the membrane have sugar attached |
|
difference between ionotropic and metabotropic |
ion: directly open the channel and direct conformational change
meta: like g couple protein requires second messengers to signal |
