Question

Membrane protein whose removal does not require crude method of treatment like detergent

Answer 1

Answer:

The hydrophobic portion of a detergent allows the molecule to partition into the apolar lipid bilayer during the solubilization of membrane proteins . It also masks the hydrophobic portions of the membrane proteins once they have been solubilized and, thus, prevents protein aggregation .

The amino acid chain of transmembrane proteins, which often are transmembrane receptors, passes through a membrane one or several times. They are inserted into the membrane by translocation, until the process is interrupted by a stop-transfer sequence, also called a membrane anchor or signal-anchor sequence.
