Answer: The peptide sequence that is essential for protein insertion, orientation in membrane and for travelling into particular organelle is called a topogenics.

Explanation: Integral membrane proteins are found in all cellular membranes and carry out many of the functions that are essential to life. The membrane-embedded domains of integral membrane proteins are structurally quite simple, allowing the use of various prediction methods and biochemical methods to obtain structural information about membrane proteins.
