Transmembrane refers to a protein that extends across the lipid bilayer of a cell membrane. These proteins have regions that span both the extracellular and intracellular sides of the membrane, allowing them to interact with molecules and ions on both sides. Transmembrane proteins play crucial roles in various cellular processes such as signal transduction, transport of molecules across cell membranes, and cell adhesion.
Transmembrane refers to the property of a molecule or protein that spans or crosses a biological membrane. It means that the molecule or protein has regions or domains on both sides of the membrane, allowing it to interact with different environments or compartments within a cell or organism. These molecules or proteins play important roles in various cellular processes, such as transport of substances across membranes, signal transduction, and cell-cell communication.
