Glycophorin A is a glycoprotein that extends across the red blood cell membrane.

Glycophorin A is a glycoprotein that extends across the red blood cell membrane. The
portion of the polypeptide that extends across the membrane bilayer contains 19 amino
acid residues and is folded into an a helix. What is the width of the bilayer that could
be spanned by this helix? The interior of the bilayer includes long acyl chains that are
nonpolar. Which of the 20 L amino acids would you expect to find among those in the
portion of the polypeptide that traverses the bilayer?
