Enzymes that move certain phospholipids between leaflets have also which of the following properties?
iren2701 [21]

Answer:

A. play a role establishing and maintaining membrane lipid asymmetry

Explanation:

Proteins that move move certain phospholipids between leaflets are transmembrane proteins via "flip-flop" transition have also the possibility to maintain membrane lipid asymmetry. There are few types of such proteins:

  • flipases-move lipids from the exterior to the interior side of the membrane, energy required
  • flopases-move lipids in reverse comparing to flipases, energy required
  • scramblases-no energy required, bidirectional

Because of the action of those proteins, cytosolic side of plasma membrane differs from exoplasmic side (asymmetry).
