3. Transport proteins Embedded within phospholipid bilayer Embedded within phospholipid bilayer Regulate the movement of WATER SOLUBLE molecules (which cannot pass directly across the bilayer) Regulate the movement of WATER SOLUBLE molecules (which cannot pass directly across the bilayer) Outer shell: made of HYDROPHOBIC amino acids Outer shell: made of HYDROPHOBIC amino acids Inner channel: made of HYDROPHILIC amino acids Inner channel: made of HYDROPHILIC amino acids

4. Movement of Molecules Depend on 2 factors 1. Concentration of molecules # molecules / volume # molecules / volume 2. Gradient across the membrane Difference in concentration between 2 regions Difference in concentration between 2 regions Moclecules tend to move from Moclecules tend to move from HIGH concentration  LOW concentration areas HIGH concentration  LOW concentration areas Eg. Concentration gradient, pressure gradient, electrical gradient Eg. Concentration gradient, pressure gradient, electrical gradient

5. Which direction will the molecules be moving according to the gradient? Plasma membrane Outside the cell Inside the cell Answer: Molecules will move INTO the cell because: more molecules outside the cell, therefore a HIG gradient less molecules inside the cell, therefore a LOW gradient REMEMBER! Moclecules tend to move from HIGH concentration  LOW concentration areas HIGH concentration  LOW concentration areas

6. Cellular Transport - Overview 1. Passive Transport a. Simple diffusion b. Facilitated diffusion c. Osmosis (passive water transport) 2. Active Transport a. Active transport b. Endocytosis Pinocytosis, Phagocytosis, Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis Pinocytosis, Phagocytosis, Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis c. Exocytosis

7. 1. Passive Transport Due to a gradient (difference in concentration between 2 regions) Due to a gradient (difference in concentration between 2 regions) Requires NO energy from the cell Requires NO energy from the cell Gradient provides potential energy that causes the movement of molecules Gradient provides potential energy that causes the movement of molecules Plasma membrane is semi-permeable (allow some molecules to pass through) Plasma membrane is semi-permeable (allow some molecules to pass through) Direction of movement: HIGH concentration  LOW concentration areas Direction of movement: HIGH concentration  LOW concentration areas

8. 1a. Simple Diffusion Diffusion of gases, water, lipid soluble (Hydrophobic) molecules through the bilipid layer Diffusion of gases, water, lipid soluble (Hydrophobic) molecules through the bilipid layer Speed of diffusion depends on: Speed of diffusion depends on: Gradient Gradient Size of molecules Size of molecules Diffusion continues until the concentration of molecules in both regions are equal (Equilibrium) Diffusion continues until the concentration of molecules in both regions are equal (Equilibrium)

10. 1b. Facilitated Diffusion Molecules diffuse through protein channels in a Transport Protein Molecules diffuse through protein channels in a Transport Protein Molecules bind to Transport protein, it changes shape and transport molecule across the membrane Molecules bind to Transport protein, it changes shape and transport molecule across the membrane Transport proteins are reuseable, and remain in the bilayer Transport proteins are reuseable, and remain in the bilayer

12. 1c. Osmosis – diffusion of H 2 O Diffusion of WATER across membranes Diffusion of WATER across membranes Water diffuses from area of HIGH concentration  LOW concentration Water diffuses from area of HIGH concentration  LOW concentration osmosis stops when the system has reached EQUILIBRIUM osmosis stops when the system has reached EQUILIBRIUM

13. 2a. Active Transport Moving materials UP the gradient Moving materials UP the gradient Direction of movement: LOW concentration  HIGH concentration areas Direction of movement: LOW concentration  HIGH concentration areas Requires energy from the cell in the form of ATP (adenosinbe triphosphate) Requires energy from the cell in the form of ATP (adenosinbe triphosphate) Requires Transport proteins with 2 active sites, one for the molecule and one for ATP Requires Transport proteins with 2 active sites, one for the molecule and one for ATP

14. ATP Adenosine triphosphate Adenosine triphosphate An ´energy carrier´molecule An ´energy carrier´molecule When ATP loses a phosphate group it gives off energy to become When ATP loses a phosphate group it gives off energy to become 3 Phospate groups ADP (adenosine diphosphate) ADP (adenosine diphosphate) ATP  ADP + Phosphate (Pi)

15. Transport proteins for Active Transport ATP binding site always inside the cell because the cell must provide energy for transport ATP binding site always inside the cell because the cell must provide energy for transport Molecule binding site may be inside or outside the cell Molecule binding site may be inside or outside the cell Transport protein changes shape after binding ATP to transport molecules from LOW concentration  HIGH concentration areas Transport protein changes shape after binding ATP to transport molecules from LOW concentration  HIGH concentration areas Transport Protein

16. 2b. Endocytosis 3 different ways cells can actively gather materials (ie. Nutrients and fluids): Pinocytosis (cell drinking) Phagocytosis (cell eating) Receptor Mediated Endocytosis
