What is a carbohydrate chain?

A carbohydrate chain is one that is made of two to possibly hundreds of carbohydrate compounds that are called monosaccharides. When they are on membrane proteins they serve as recognition markers.


What are three components of the plasma membrane?

phospholipid bilayer, channel proteins, and carbohydrate chains


What part of the membrane helps large carbohydrate molecules enter the cell?

Globular proteins


Which part of the membrane would help a large carbohydrate molecule the cell?

Globular proteins


What are proteins that stick into the cell membrane and pass all the way through called?

carbohydrate molecules ( they are attached to most of these proteins.)


Functions of integral membrane protein?

Integral proteins are found within the membrane and have hydrophobic regions embedded within the membrane and hydrophilic regions that project from both surfaces of the bilayer Many integral proteins are glycoproteins, which have an attached carbohydrate chain. As with glycolipids, the carbohydrate chain of sugars projects externally. There- fore it can be said that the plasma membrane is "sugar- coated." The plasma membrane is asymmetrical: the two halves are not identical. The carbohydrate chains of the glyco-lipids and proteins occur only on the outside surface and the cytoskeletal filaments attach to proteins only on the inside surface

Glycoproteins are membrane proteins?

Yes they are found as integral membrane proteins in addition to lipidis, glycerol and proteins alone. Glycoproteins are proteins that are post translationally coneected to sugar chains. Mostly the secreted proteins are also glycoslated.


Are carbohydrate chains on lipids and proteins found on the inside or outside of the membrane?

im pretty sure its inside


Show you the Diagram of the plasma membrane with label on each component each component?

diagrams should include the correct orientation of the phospholipids, proteins, carbohydrate, and cholesterol in the membrane.
