1 Plasma Membrane

2 Pre-Assessment 1.Which of the following statements concerning membrane proteins is incorrect? A.They can act as a channel, allowing the transport of ions across the membrane. B.They often require ATP to actively transport materials across the membrane against a concentration gradient. C.They may be receptor proteins that bind specific molecules from the surrounding solution, which triggers endocytosis (i.e., receptor-mediated endocytosis). D.They are usually not particular about what types of chemicals they will allow to cross the membrane.

Peripheral/outside proteins

9 Phospholipid Bilayer Composed of fatty acid tails connected to glycerol heads non-polar (hydrophobic) fatty acid interior impedes passage of water-soluble substances (it is liquid like a soap bubble) Polar heads (hydrophilic) are water soluble

10 Components of a Plasma Membrane Phospholipids Proteins – Integral proteins – completely penetrate the lipid bilayer; they control the entry and removal of specific molecules – Peripheral proteins – bound to the exterior surface of the membrane; they have various functions

11 Components of a Plasma Membrane Cholesterol – Inside near the fatty acid tails; helps to regulate membrane fluidity and is important for membrane stability

12 Fluid Mosaic Model

13 The 6 Membrane Protein Functions 1.Hormone binding sites – these proteins have specific shapes exposed to the exterior that fit the shape of specific hormones 2.Enzymes – catalyze chemical reactions; may be on interior or exterior of the cell membrane; often grouped together for a chain reaction (called metabolic pathway) 3.Cell adhesion – proteins hook together to provide temporary or permanent connections; these connections referred to as junctions

14 4. Cell-to-cell communication – many include carbohydrates attached to protein molecules on outside of cell; they provide an ID tag letting other cells know what type of cell they are 5. Channels for passive transport – integral proteins that have a channel in them to allow substances to move through; passive means substances move through from high to low concentration 6. Pumps for active transport – integral proteins that shuttle a substance from one side to the other by changing their shape; this process requires energy in the form of ATP

15 Diffusion and Osmosis Diffusion: passive movement of particles from high to low concentrations Osmosis: passive movement of WATER molecules from low solute concentration to high solute concentration http://highered.mcgraw- hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/cha pter2/animation__how_osmosis_works.html http://highered.mcgraw- hill.com/sites/0072495855/student_view0/chapter2/animation__how_diffusion_works.html

16 Passive Transport Membranes are semi permeable so only certain molecules can pass through Passive Transport = NO ENERGY Simple Diffusion: movement of molecules through the phospholipid bilayer – Hydrophobic molecules use this method

17 Types of Diffusion Facilitated Diffusion: movement of molecules with the help of a protein channel found in the membrane – Hydrophilic molecules use the channel proteins

18 Protein Pumps and ATP Active Transport: movement of substances through the membrane using energy (ATP) Substances are moved against their concentration gradient LOW to HIGH concentrations Possible because of membrane protein pumps Pumps are selective as well

19 Vesicles Once proteins are synthesized by ribosome: 1.Transported to the rough ER to be modified 2.Vesicles with the protein bud off of the rough ER and are transported to the Golgi Apparatus for more modification 3.Then, the vesicle transports the protein to the membrane by fusing with the membrane and expelling the contents outside the cell 4.The membrane reforms

20 Endocytosis and Exocytosis The membrane is fluid to allow it to change shape Exocytosis: the vesicles fuses with the membrane and expells the contents OUT of the cell Endocytosis: the pulling of the plasma membrane INWARDS so a vesicle is pinched off it and can carry the contents INTO the cell
