Question
Chapter 5.2, Problem 1CS
Summary Introduction
To explain: The reason for the importance of transmembrane protein in the cell-cell binding and cell-matrix binding.
Introduction: The transmembrane proteins traverse from one end of the membrane to the other end. These proteins are embedded inside the phospholipid bilayer and are organized in such a way that their hydrophobic body lies in the middle region while the outer side of the membrane contains polar amino groups.
