Membrane Models Fig 6-1
3
Membrane Lipids Phosphoglycerides AKA: Phospholipids Fig 6-2
4
Phosphoglycerides Variety of alcohol head groups Fig 6-2

Phosphoglycerides Variety of fatty acid tail groups NameC #Double Bonds (position) Myristate140 Palmitate160 Palmitoleate16 1 ( 9) Stearate180 Oleate18 1 ( 9) Linoleate18 2 ( 9, 12) Linolenate18 3 ( 9, 12, 15) Arachidonate20 4 ( 5, 8, 11, 14 ) Common Fatty Acids
6
Sphingolipids Sphingosine in place of glycerol & 1 fatty acid
7
Glycolipids Sphingolipids – glycosphingolipids are predominate glycolipid Glycosylphosphatidylinositol – GPI –Sugar chain on inositol moiety of phosphatidylinositol –Used frequently as an anchor for peripheral membrane proteins
8
Sterol Lipids Cholesterol –Major animal membrane sterol lipid –Major contributor to fluidity of membranes –Precursor for steroid hormone and bile salt biosynthesis
9
Physical Properties of Biological Membranes Lipid Compositions PS = phosphotidylserine, PC= phosotidylcholine, SM = sphingomyelin, GS = glycosphingosine, PE = phosphotidylethanolamine
10
Physical Properties of Biological Membranes Computer generated atomic models predicting molecular arrangements in phospholipid bilayers
11
Membrane Proteins Integral proteins –Transmembrane domains 25 aa -helix -barrel H-bonding of all amino & carbonyl groups Hydrophobic residues –G, A, L, I, V –Hydropathy calculations predict TM domains from protein sequence
12
Membrane Proteins Peripheral proteins –Acylation Farnesylation Myristoylation –GPI anchor –Electrostatic interaction –Partial insertion –Association with integral protein
13
Transport Complexes
14
Control of Membrane Permeability Selective permeability of membranes Control of solute movement across membranes –Pumps "active transport" Require energy source to achieve movement –Carriers "passive transport" Movement of particles down concentration gradients result in conformational changes that can allow transport against gradient –Channels "selective passive transport" Opening and closing is regulated
