A transmembrane protein (TP) is a type of integral membrane protein that spans the entirety of the biological membrane to which it is permanently attached. Many transmembrane proteins function as gateways to permit the transport of specific substances across the biological membrane. They frequently undergo significant conformational changes to move a substance through the membrane. Transmembrane proteins are polytopic proteins that aggregate and precipitate in water.
Integral proteins can span the membrane one or several times and these are called transmembrane proteins. Membrane proteins serve several functions, including cell-to-cell communication and interaction, molecular transport, and cell signaling. To unlock this lesson you must be a Study.com Member.
