What's More Since you have already learned the principal components and functions of the cell membrane, the activity below is provided for you. The table below consists of three columns with the pictures found in the first column. Then, on the second column, you have to write the component of the cell membrane which is analogous to the presented pictures/illustrations. You can choose between PHOSPHOLIPID, CARBOHYDRATE, CHOLESTEROL, INTEGRAL PROTEINS, and PERIPHERAL PROTEINS which may be used more than once. Lastly, on the third column, you have to write the SPECIFIC FUNCTION of the component of the cell membrane that is depicted by each picture/illustration.

Proteins
We generally tend to think of proteins only from a dietary lens, as a component of what we eat. However, they are among the most important and abundant organic macromolecules in the human body, with diverse structures and functions. Every cell contains thousands and thousands of proteins, each with specific functions. Some help in the formation of cellular membrane or walls, some help the cell to move, others act as messages or signals and flow seamlessly from one cell to another, carrying information.
Protein Expression
The method by which living organisms synthesize proteins and further modify and regulate them is called protein expression. Protein expression plays a significant role in several types of research and is highly utilized in molecular biology, biochemistry, and protein research laboratories.
