it is a protein in a quatenary structure or three d sturucture with in the cell wall and transports macro molecules, hydrophobic molecules or molecules that are going agains the concentration(respectively are to big to go through, repel the cell wall, or are going against the traffic of osmosis) by using those molecules as a substrate( something that fits into a protein) and moves to the other side of the wall

Through what type of proteins does active transport occur?
A carrier protein (as opposed to a channel protein). An example of a carrier protein is the Na+/K+ pump.
What type of transport protein is a sodium potassium pump?
It is a carrier protein
Do ions need a transport protein to enter bilayer?
Yes! K+ or Na+ or exchanged with its specific potassium and sodium pump protein on the membrane.
What do plants use to load sucrose?
Plants use an ekectrogenic pump, a proton pump and a con transport protein to load sucrose. The sucrose is produced by photosynthesis that turn into specialized cells in the veins of their leaves.
What will most likely happen if the hydrogen pump protein in photosystem it doesn't take in enough H ions into the thylakiod?
A decrease in the formation of ATP
Is the sodium potassium pump a carrier protein?
the carrier protein of Na-k pump is an ion carrier protein and the pump cannot be termed as the carrier protein its a biochemical phenomenon
What membrane protein can act as a pump?
histone protein
Through what type of proteins does active transport occur?
A carrier protein (as opposed to a channel protein). An example of a carrier protein is the Na+/K+ pump.
Can proton pump inhibitors be used on dogs?
Yes, protein pump inhibitors can be used on dogs.
What type of transport protein is a sodium potassium pump?
It is a carrier protein
What kind of protein is the sodium-potassium pump?
a carrier protien
Why should protein pump inhibitors be taken 30 minutes before meals?
proton pump inhibitors (not protein) need to inhibit the production of hydrochloric acid in the stomache and it takes about 30 for that to happen.
What is the best carrier protein pump in animal cells?
Animal cells' best-known carrier pump is their stomach.
Do ions need a transport protein to enter bilayer?
Yes! K+ or Na+ or exchanged with its specific potassium and sodium pump protein on the membrane.
Can sodium still enter a membrane if ATP is not present to activate the sodium potassium pump?
no as there is no energy to form a conrormational change in the protein pump
What protein that allows ions to actively transport across?
The transport protein allows substances to travel across the cell membrane. The substance is traveling from low concentration to a higher concentration. The process requires energy and is called active transport. The protein is simply called a transport protein.
What mechanisms do plants use to load sucrose produced by photosynthesis into specialized cells in the veins of leaves?
Electrogenic pump, proton pump, and contransport protein.
