Question
Chapter 3, Problem 6WIO
Summary Introduction
To analyze:
The relation between hydrophobic and hydrophilic substances, enzymes, pH, and related to cell function.
Introduction:
A cell is made up of a cell membrane, a cell wall, and a large number of organelles that are controlled by the DNA that is found inside the nucleus. The diverse proteins are created from the amino acids found in the cytoplasm via the transcription of DNA into mRNA. This protein aids in controlling cellular processes, carrying out chemical processes, constructing the structure, and mending damaged and malfunctioning organelles. Proteins can take the form of enzymes, and structural proteins or they can function as membrane-surface receptors that open channels for things to enter and exit cells or enable the attachment of drug molecules to cell surfaces.

The cell membrane regulates the movement of molecules in and out the cell. what other functions does the cell membrane perform?
Glycophorins are a type of membrane protein found on red blood cells. They allow red blood cells to circulate through the blood vessels without sticking to the walls of the blood vessels or to other cells. Describe how a glycophorin protein would be synthesized by the cell. Include
What parts of the cell are involved and what happens at each location.
The process of protein synthesis (i.e. transcription, translation, etc).
