An important group of peripheral membrane proteins are enzymes, such as the phospholipases that attack the head groups of phospholipids leading to the degradation of damaged membranes. What properties must these enzymes exhibit? A. membrane spanning domains B. independence from cofactor interaction C. lipid solubility D. water solubility E. resistance to degradation

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer is D water solubility.

Explanation:

Phospholipase is an enzyme that attacks the phospholipid molecules leading to degradation of damaged membrane.Phospholipse belongs to peripheral membrane protein which means this enzyme is present either in the cytosol or in the extracellular region.

            Both cytoplasmic and extracellular region of the plasma membrane contain water.

              From this point of view it can be stated that water solubility is the property that should be exihibited by the phospholipase protein.

Answer:

D. water solubility

Explanation:

phospholipase is an enzyme that attacks the phospholipids molecules leading to digradation of dameged membrane
