In order for a protein to be an integral membrane protein it would have to be what?
the whole protein must be amphipathic but the surface itself must be hydrophobic.
In order for a protein to be an integral protein it would have to be what?
amphipathic
What helps maintain flexibility of membrane?
Peripheral protein
Are transmembrane proteins amphipathic?
yes, transmembrane proteins have both polar and non-polar regions. This is because these proteins are dispersed through the membrane almost like pieces of stones. So, to be inside the hydrophobic region of the phospholipid bi-layer AND also outside of it in the water or aqueous solution they transmembrane protein needs to be amphipathic.
What is the main function of the peripheral protein?
to suck a toe...
Is sodium oleate amphipathic?
Sodium oleate is an amphipathic compound.
Function of peripheral proteins?
Peripheral membrane proteins are proteins that adhere only temporarily to the biological membrane with which they are associated. Peripheral proteins are not bonded as strongly to the membrane. They may just sit on the surface of the membrane, anchored with a few hydrogen (H) bonds.
Is a steroid hydrophobic or hydrophilic or amphipathic?
Yes. However, more to the point is that steroid hormones are lipophilic.
What property of dishwashing liquid (detergent) makes it useful to wash grease from pans?
Amphipathic nature.
What types of patients require peripheral parenteral nutrition?
Patients who require moderate energy and protein for up to 2 weeks need peripheral parenteral nutrition.
Are fats amphipathic?
Yes. The glycerol head is polar while the fatty acids are nonpolar. Thus, fat is indeed amphipathic.
Is glucose an amphipathic?
I don't think that glucose has both hydrophyllic and hydrophobic ends though it is soluble. Think phospholipid for an amphipathic molecule.
