membraneeiwit
Membraneeiwit is a protein that is associated with a biological membrane. These proteins play crucial roles in a wide array of cellular functions, including transport of substances across the membrane, signal transduction, and cell-cell recognition. Membrane proteins can be broadly categorized into integral membrane proteins, which are embedded within the lipid bilayer, and peripheral membrane proteins, which are associated with the membrane surface or integral proteins.
Integral membrane proteins often span the entire membrane, forming transmembrane domains. These domains are typically hydrophobic,
Peripheral membrane proteins, on the other hand, do not penetrate the hydrophobic core of the lipid bilayer.
