The next ingredient in our phospholipid bilayer cake is proteins. Membrane proteins are all over the membrane and each has a specific function. Which of these membrane proteins function as transport channels - integral or peripheral?

Integral proteins✔✔
which are inside the cell membrane, are trans-membrane proteins that usually determine many of the functions within the membrane.
Integral proteins are hydrophobic but have hydrophilic parts.
They can be found in chains of hydrocarbons.
Because of their status as trans-membrane proteins integral proteins can perform functions both inside and outside the membrane.

Scattered in the lipid bilayer are cholesterol molecules, which help to keep the membrane fluid consistent. Membrane proteins are important for transporting substances across the cell membrane.
They can also function as enzymes or receptors. On the extracellular fluid side of a cell membrane, you find carbohydrates.
