What do you remember?

Membrane held in place by mostly hydrophobic interaction
“Fluid Mosaic Model” Membrane held in place by mostly hydrophobic interaction Most lipids and some proteins drift randomly

Factors influencing fluidity
1) Phospholipid structure

Transport What types of molecules can do this? Passive transport
Diffusion Down concentration gradient Simple vs. Facilitated Simple diffusion molecules diffuse through the lipid portion What types of molecules can do this?
10
Facilitated Diffusion
Requires help (Protein) Why would it need help? Examples: carrier/transport proteins ion channels gated ion channels aquaporins
12
Osmosis Diffusion of water -through a selectively permeable membrane
Uses aquaporins Comparative terms Hypertonic Hypotonic Isotonic ALWAYS refer to SOLUTE concentration
14
Which direction will water move? What will happen to fluid levels?
B B A Selectively permeable membrane Which side has a higher solute concentration? Which side has a higher water concentration? Which side is hypertonic? Which side is hypotonic?
21
Active Transport Movement of a solute against its concentration gradient -many times use ATP as energy ex: Na+/K+ pump Proton pump is major electrogenic pump in plants, fungi, and bacteria
22
Cotransport Use the concentration gradient produced by one pump to move a second molecule against its concentration gradient high sucrose low sucrose Ex: Plants use this to load sugar (from photosynthesis) into specialized cells (phloem) so it can be transported throughout the plant

Apply to a functioning neuron
27
Resting potential charge difference on either side of membrane
28
Na+ is main cation Negatively charged proteins are main anions
K+ is main cation
30
Na+ channels behind (toward the cell body) cannot be reactivated for a period of time
Ensures that action potentials are one way
32
Saltatory conduction

Local signaling Synaptic signaling Electrical signal triggers
release of neurotransmitter. Synaptic signaling Neurotransmitter diffuses across synapse. Figure Local and long-distance cell signaling by secreted molecules in animals (part 2: local signaling, synaptic) Target cell

Local signaling Target cells Paracrine signaling
-ex: growth factors used to stimulate target cells to grow and divide Secreting cell Figure Local and long-distance cell signaling by secreted molecules in animals (part 1: local signaling, paracrine) Secretory vesicles Local regulator -ex: growth factor
43
Long-distance signaling endocrine signaling …hormones!!!
Target cell specifically binds hormone. Endocrine cell Hormone travels in bloodstream. Figure Local and long-distance cell signaling by secreted molecules in animals (part 3: long distance signaling, endocrine) Blood vessel

Many signal cascades utilize protein kinases
Kinases phosphorylate other molecules (often proteins) Responses can be amplified

Intercellular joining
Examples in animal cells -tight junctions -gap junctions -desmosomes

Prevent leakage of fluid from between cells
Tight Junctions Prevent leakage of fluid from between cells
61
Function like rivets, anchoring cells together
Function like rivets, anchoring cells together. Membrane proteins are attached to intermediate filaments (part of cytoskeleton). Found in cells that undergo mechanical stress (epithelial in intestines, skin)
63
Gap Junctions Allow for passage of molecules from cytoplasm of one cell to the next. Allows for direct communication. Found in cardiac muscle and some neurons. Speeds impulse transmission
