Question 3

Membrane Structure and FunctionLipid Bilayer and Membrane Protein Diffusion

MCQ

Read the question, then carefully choose the correct answer(s).

Appeared in Year: 2022

In eukaryotic cells, covalently attached lipids help to anchor some water-soluble proteins to the plasma membrane. One group of cytosolic proteins are anchored to the cytosolic face of membrane by a fatty acyl group (e. g. myristate or palmitate). These groups are generally covalently attached to which amino acids present at the N-terminus of the polypeptide chain?

Choices

a.

Serine

b.

Glycine

Tyrosine

d.

Lysine
