Which of the following is the most important interaction in the formation of cell membrane lipid bilayer and in lipid-protein interaction?: (A) Hydrophobic interactions, (B) Both hydrophobic and convalent interactions, (C) Covalent bonds, (D) Hydrogen bonds
Answer is A. Interactions in the cell membrane.
-        Hydrophobic (most important)–

Between lipids- Information of lipid bilayer​
Transmembrane proteins and lipids

-        Van der walls interaction

Between lipids- Information of lipid bilayer​
Transmembrane proteins and lipids

-        Electrostatic bonds

Between transmembrane and peripheral proteins

-        Hydrogen bonds

Between transmembrane and peripheral proteins

-        Covalent bond (least important)

Peripheral protein with the hydrophilic end of phospholipid
