6 Figure 3.4a Membrane proteins perform many tasks.
(a) Transport A protein (left) that spans the membrane may provide a hydrophilic channel across the membrane that is selective for a particular solute. Some transport proteins (right) hydrolyze ATP as an energy source to actively pump substances across the membrane.

7 Figure 3.4b Membrane proteins perform many tasks.
(b) Receptors for signal transduction Signal A membrane protein exposed to the outside of the cell may have a binding site with a specific shape that fits the shape of a chemical messenger, such as a hormone. The external signal may cause a change in shape in the protein that initiates a chain of chemical reactions in the cell. Receptor

8 Figure 3.4c Membrane proteins perform many tasks.
(c) Attachment to the cytoskeleton and extracellular matrix (ECM) Elements of the cytoskeleton (cell’s internal supports) and the extracellular matrix (fibers and other substances outside the cell) may be anchored to membrane proteins, which help maintain cell shape and fix the location of certain membrane proteins. Others play a role in cell movement or bind adjacent cells together.

9 Figure 3.4d Membrane proteins perform many tasks.
(d) Enzymatic activity Enzymes A protein built into the membrane may be an enzyme with its active site exposed to substances in the adjacent solution. In some cases, several enzymes in a membrane act as a team that catalyzes sequential steps of a metabolic pathway as indicated (left to right) here.

10 Figure 3.4e Membrane proteins perform many tasks.
(e) Intercellular joining Membrane proteins of adjacent cells may be hooked together in various kinds of intercellular junctions. Some membrane proteins (CAMs) of this group provide temporary binding sites that guide cell migration and other cell-to-cell interactions. CAMs

11 Figure 3.4f Membrane proteins perform many tasks.
(f) Cell-cell recognition Some glycoproteins (proteins bonded to short chains of sugars) serve as identification tags that are specifically recognized by other cells. Glycoprotein

12 Figure 3.5 Cell junctions. Plasma membranes of adjacent cells Microvilli Intercellular space Basement membrane Intercellular space Intercellular space Plaque Channel between cells (connexon) Interlocking junctional proteins Intercellular space Intermediate filament (keratin) Linker glycoproteins (cadherins) (a) Tight junctions: Impermeable junctions prevent molecules from passing through the intercellular space. (b) Desmosomes: Anchoring junctions bind adjacent cells together and help form an internal tension-reducing network of fibers. (c) Gap junctions: Communicating junctions allow ions and small molecules to pass from one cell to the next for intercellular communication.

13 Figure 3.6 Diffusion.

14 Figure 3.7 Diffusion through the plasma membrane.
Extracellular fluid Lipid-insoluble solutes (such as sugars or amino acids) Small lipid- insoluble solutes Water molecules Lipid- soluble solutes Lipid billayer Aquaporin Cytoplasm (a) Simple diffusion of fat-soluble molecules directly through the phospholipid bilayer (b) Carrier-mediated facilitated diffusion via a protein carrier specific for one chemical; binding of substrate causes shape change in transport protein (c) Channel-mediated facilitated diffusion through a channel protein; mostly ions selected on basis of size and charge (d) Osmosis, diffusion of a solvent such as water through a specific channel protein (aquaporin) or through the lipid bilayer

15 Solute and water molecules move down their concentration gradients
Figure 3.8a Influence of membrane permeability on diffusion and osmosis. (a) Membrane permeable to both solutes and water Solute and water molecules move down their concentration gradients in opposite directions. Fluid volume remains the same in both compartments. Left compartment: Solution with lower osmolarity Right compartment: Solution with greater osmolarity Both solutions have the same osmolarity: volume unchanged H2O Solute Solute molecules (sugar) Membrane

16 (b) Membrane permeable to water, impermeable to solutes
Figure 3.8b Influence of membrane permeability on diffusion and osmosis. (b) Membrane permeable to water, impermeable to solutes Solute molecules are prevented from moving but water moves by osmosis. Volume increases in the compartment with the higher osmolarity. Both solutions have identical osmolarity, but volume of the solution on the right is greater because only water is free to move Left compartment Right compartment H2O Solute molecules (sugar) Membrane

17 Figure 3.9 The effect of solutions of varying tonicities on living red blood cells.
(a) Isotonic solutions (b) Hypertonic solutions (c) Hypotonic solutions Cells retain their normal size and shape in isotonic solutions (same solute/water concentration as inside cells; water moves in and out). Cells lose water by osmosis and shrink in a hypertonic solution (contains a higher concentration of solutes than are present inside the cells). Cells take on water by osmosis until they become bloated and burst (lyse) in a hypotonic solution (contains a lower concentration of solutes than are present in cells).

18 Figure 3.10 Primary Active Transport: The Na+-K+ Pump
Extracellular fluid Na+ Na+–K+ pump ATP-binding site K+ Na+ bound Cytoplasm 1 Cytoplasmic Na+ binds to pump protein. P ATP K+ released ADP K+ is released from the pump protein and Na+ sites are ready to bind Na+ again. The cycle repeats. 6 2 Binding of Na+ promotes phosphorylation of the protein by ATP. Na+ released K+ bound P Pi K+ K+ binding triggers release of the phosphate. Pump protein returns to its original conformation. 5 Phosphorylation causes the protein to change shape, expelling Na+ to the outside. 3 P 4 Extracellular K+ binds to pump protein.

Coated pit ingests substance. 1 Extracellular fluid Plasma membrane Protein coat (typically clathrin) Cytoplasm 2 Protein- coated vesicle detaches. Coat proteins detach and are recycled to plasma membrane. 3 Transport vesicle Endosome Uncoated endocytic vesicle Uncoated vesicle fuses with a sorting vesicle called an endosome. 4 Transport vesicle containing membrane components moves to the plasma membrane for recycling. 5 Lysosome 6 Fused vesicle may (a) fuse with lysosome for digestion of its contents, or (b) deliver its contents to the plasma membrane on the opposite side of the cell (transcytosis). (b) (a)

20 Overview of Endocytosis (This diagram is not in your textbook.)

21 Figure 3.13a Comparison of three types of endocytosis.
Phagocytosis The cell engulfs a large particle by forming pro- jecting pseudopods (“false feet”) around it and en- closing it within a membrane sac called a phagosome. The phagosome is combined with a lysosome. Undigested contents remain in the vesicle (now called a residual body) or are ejected by exocytosis. Vesicle may or may not be protein- coated but has receptors capable of binding to microorganisms or solid particles. Phagosome

22 Figure 3.13b Comparison of three types of endocytosis.
Pinocytosis The cell “gulps” drops of extracellular fluid containing solutes into tiny vesicles. No receptors are used, so the process is nonspecific. Most vesicles are protein-coated. Vesicle

23 Figure 3.13c Comparison of three types of endocytosis.
Receptor-mediated endocytosis Extracellular substances bind to specific receptor proteins in regions of coated pits, enabling the cell to ingest and concentrate specific substances (ligands) in protein-coated vesicles. Ligands may simply be released inside the cell, or combined with a lysosome to digest contents. Receptors are recycled to the plasma membrane in vesicles. Vesicle Receptor recycled to plasma membrane

25 i>Clicker Question #1:
Which of the following would be considered true for facilitated diffusion? The movement of materials is along (or with) the concentration gradient. The process may use a channel protein. An example of facilitated diffusion is seen in the sodium-potassium pump. Two of the above are correct. All of the above are correct.
