Integral monotopic protein
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Integral monotopic proteins are permanently attached to the cell membrane from one side, and are a type of integral membrane protein (IMP).[1]

Three-dimensional structures of the following integral monotopic proteins have been determined:
- prostaglandin H2 syntheses 1 and 2 (cyclooxygenases)
- lanosterol synthase and squalene-hopene cyclase
- microsomal prostaglandin E synthase
- carnitine O-palmitoyltransferase 2
- Phosphoglycosyl transferase C
There are also structures of integral monotopic domains of transmembrane proteins:
