Which of these often serve as receptors or cell recognition molecules on cell surfaces?
A)transmembrane proteins
B)integral proteins
C)peripheral proteins
D)integrins
E)glycoproteins

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Glycoproteins are proteins with carbohydrate chains attached, and these carbohydrate chains often serve as receptors or recognition molecules on cell surfaces. The other choices (transmembrane proteins, integral proteins, peripheral proteins, integrins) do not necessarily have carbohydrate chains attached and may serve other functions in the cell membrane.
