Cell Membranes
Cell Membrane Parts Phospholipids –Structure –Function –Motion Proteins –Structure –Function
Model of a Cell Membrane
Amphiphilic = Both hydrophobic and hydrophilic Phospholipid Structure
Cell Membrane Parts Phospholipids –Structure –Function –Motion Proteins –Structure –Function
Phospholipids are Amphiphilic
Hydrophobic molecules pass through membrane Hydrophilic molecules bounce off Getting into the Cell
Soap is also Amphiphilic Soap removes grease because it is amphiphilic Not Jon’s Dishes
Some materials easily enter the cell Some materials cannot enter easily Plasma Membrane is Selectively Permeable
Types of Molecular Transport Passive transport –Requires no energy Active transport –Requires energy
Let’s Do an Experiment!
Types of Passive Transport Diffusion –Requires no energy –Movement of molecules from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration
What Causes Diffusion? Why do you think diffusion occurs?
Types of Passive Transport Osmosis –Diffusion of water
Types of Passive Transport Osmosis –Diffusion of water –Water moves towards area of high solute concentration OSMOSIS ANIMATION
Types of Passive Transport Osmosis –Diffusion of water –Water moves towards area of high solute concentration –Osmotic Pressure The force with which water moves toward the area of low concentration
Types of Passive Transport Facilitated Diffusion –Molecules cannot pass through membrane unaided
Types of Passive Transport Facilitated Diffusion –Molecules cannot pass through membrane unaided –Need protein channel to facilitate transport into the cell May be too large to pass through Polar Hydrophilic
Facilitated Diffusion at the Bar Gonna need to see some ID to facilitate your transport in.
Facilitated Diffusion at the Bar Hydrophilic, eh? Fine, enter through the protein channel.
Types of Molecular Transport Passive transport –Requires no energy Active transport –Requires energy
Active Transport at the Bar This joint is packed with hydrophilic molecules. I need ID and $5 to go against the gradient.
Active Transport Pumps ATP is used for power
Active Transport Pumps ATP is used for power Work against osmotic or electrical gradient
Active Transport Pumps ATP is used for power Work against osmotic or electrical gradient Move from low to high concentration
Phagocytosis Cell engulfs a particle
Phagocytosis Cell engulfs a particle Allows very large objects to enter cell
White Blood Cells use Phagocytosis WBC Bacteria
Cell Membrane Parts Phospholipids –Structure –Function –Motion Proteins –Structure –Function
Fluid-Mosaic Model Membrane molecules are in continuous motion (= fluidity) FLUID MOSAIC ANIMATION
Phospholipid Movement Phospholipids often move laterally
Phospholipid Movement Phospholipids often move laterally Phospholipids seldom flip –Heads would have to pass through hydrophobic space
Fluid-Mosaic Model Membrane molecules are in continuous motion (= fluidity) Type of phospholipid determines fluidity
Phospholipid Tails Influence Fluidity Unsaturated fatty acid tails are more fluid
Saturated fatty acid tails are less fluid Phospholipid Tails Influence Fluidity
Fluid-Mosaic Model Membrane molecules are in continuous motion (= fluidity) Type of phospholipid determines fluidity Cholesterol and proteins are embedded in bilayer
Cholesterol helps stabilize phospholipid movement Fluidity of Membranes

Transport of Hydrophilic Molecules Facilitated Diffusion Active Transport
1. Proteins change shape to move molecules across membrane. 2. Proteins can cooperate to transport molecules.
Summary Membranes are formed by the amphiphilic nature of phospholipids Membrane molecules are in constant flux, creating a fluid and dynamic layer Membrane proteins serve a number of functions, including regulating the passage of molecules into and out of the cell
