In fact, 30% of genes in our DNA code fo proteins? membrane proteins. Which of the following is NOT a function of these membrane e Using ATP to pump Na+ out of the cell Acing as receptors for protein hormones e Assisting with transcription of DNA O Forming tight connections between adjacent heart muscle cells e Identifying cells to one another

Explanation / Answer

The function that is not maintained by the membrane protein is assisting with transcription of DNA. We all know that transcription takes place in the nucleus not in the cell membrane. Transcription is a process where mRNA is produced from the gene(a part of DNA) to synthetase the protein. DNA as well as genes are mainly located in the nucleus not in the cell membrane.
