Integral proteins can be receptors, but not all integral proteins are. Therefore you cannot use the terms integral and receptor interchangeably. Integral proteins are proteins that are permanently attached to the membrane, and span the width (go from one side to the other). Receptor proteins are found on the surface of a cell and receive signals from other cells or the environment.
Another name for integral proteins is integral membrane proteins.
Most are transmembrane proteins, which span the entire depth of the membrane.
Channel proteins.

No, because there are two groups of integral proteins, one being Transmembrane proteins and the other beingIntegral monotopic proteins, with each of these having different features and characteristics making them look different. ---- This website was used as a source http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Integral_membrane_protein
Polypeptides are commonly referred to as Proteins (as proteins are chains of peptide molecules)
Some integral proteins form "channels" or "pores". These channels are responsible for allowing specific types of ions to move through the cell membrane to go from the extracellular fluid to the cytosol of the internal side of the cell.

Integral proteins
Membranes bound within the cell membrane. Integral proteins extend from one side of the membrane to the other.
The cell membranes that can act as channels are called integral proteins. Peripheral proteins are the ones that are attached to just one side of the cell membrane.
Integral proteins
They are usually transmembrane proteins.
Integral proteins are membrane proteins that are permanently attached to the membrane phospho lipid bilayer.ATPase enzyme is an example for the integral proteins which make ATP. Peripheral proteins in contrast present on the surface of the membrane.
Channel proteins.

Carrier proteins are proteins involved in the movement of ions, small molecules, or macromolecules, such as another protein, across a biological membrane. Carrier proteins are integral membrane proteins; that is, they exist within and span the membrane across which theytransportsubstances.
