Draw a small section of a typical lipid bilayer

Question

1.     Draw a small section of a typical biological lipid bilayer. Include at least one of each membrane lipid (i.e., glycerophospholipid, sphingolipid, and sterol). (40 pts.)

a.     Within your sketch, include:

                                             i.     A lipid-anchored protein. (Show what amino acid residue the protein is likely attached to and how.) (You DO NOT have to draw a whole protein! Just use a schematic diagram.)

                                           ii.     A glycosylated lipid. (You choose the carbohydrates but label them by name.)

                                         iii.     A glycosylated intrinsic protein.

Answer 1

Here is what a typical lipid bi layer looks like. I would suggest checking your materials for the answers to a.
