CELLS AND HOW THEY WORK Chapter Outline Cells: Organized for life The cytoskeleton: support and movement The plasma membrane: a lipid bilayer The plasma membrane is a mix of lipids and proteins Membrane proteins carry out most membrane functions DNA is organized in chromosomes Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) : A protein and lipid assembly line Golgi Bodies: Packing and shipping Mitochondria: the cell’s energy factories
3
Mitochondria: the cell’s energy factories ATP—The cell’s energy currency How cells make ATP Cells make ATP in three steps Step 1: Glycolysis breaks glucose down to pyruvate Step 2: The Krebs cycle produces energy-rich transport molecules Step 3: Electron transport produces a large harvest of ATP

Smallest unit of life Can survive on its own or has potential to do so Is highly organized for metabolism Senses and responds to environment Has potential to reproduce Cell

Table 3.2 Common Features of Eukaryotic Cells ORGANELLES AND THEIR MAIN FUNCTIONS: Nucleus Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) Golgi body Various vesicles Mitochondria Contains the cell’s DNA Routes and modifies newly formed polypeptide chains; also, where lipids are assembled Modifies polypeptide chains into mature proteins; sorts and ships proteins and lipids for secretion or for use inside cell Transport or store a variety of substances; break down substances and cell structures in the cell; other functions Produce ATP

Membrane Proteins Transport proteins Receptor proteins Recognition proteins Adhesion proteins
29
glucose, more concentrated outside cell than inside glucose transporter When the glucose binding site is again vacant, the protein resumes its original shape. Glucose binds to a vacant site inside the channel through the transport protein. Glucose becomes exposed to fluid on the other side of the membrane. Bound glucose makes the protein change shape. Part of the channel closes behind the solute.
30
Passive Transport Flow of solutes through the interior of passive transport proteins down their concentration gradients Passive transport proteins enable solutes to move both ways Does not require any energy input
32
Active Transport Net diffusion of solute is against concentration gradient ATP gives up phosphate to activate protein Binding of ATP changes protein shape and affinity for solute
33
higher concentration of calcium outside cell lower concentration of calcium inside cell The pump returns to its resting shape. ATP binds to a calcium pump. Shape change permits calcium release at opposite side of membrane. Phosphate group and ADP are released. Calcium enters tunnel through pump. ATP transfers a phosphate group to pump. This energy input will cause pump’s shape to change.

Keeps the DNA molecules of eukaryotic cells separated from metabolic machinery of cytoplasm Makes it easier to organize DNA and to copy it before parent cells divide into daughter cells Functions of Nucleus
38
Endoplasmic Reticulum In animal cells, continuous with nuclear membrane Extends throughout cytoplasm Two regions: rough and smooth

Golgi Bodies Put finishing touches on proteins and lipids that arrive from ER Package finished material for shipment to final destinations

5 Vesicles from the Golgi body transport products to the plasma membrane. Products are released by exocytosis. 4 Proteins and lipids take on final form inside Golgi body. Modifications enable them to be sorted out and shipped to proper destinations. 3 Vesicles bud from the ER membrane and transport unfinished proteins and lipids to a Golgi body. 2 In the membrane of smooth ER, lipids are assembled. 1 Some polypeptide chains enter the rough ER. Modifications begin. Endocytic vesicles form at plasma membrane and move into the cytoplasm. They might fuse with the membrane of other organelles or remain intact, as storage vesicles. Exocytic vesicles bud from ER and Golgi membranes, travel to and fuse with plasma membrane. Their contents are thereby released from the cell. DNA instructions for building polypeptide chains leave the nucleus and enter the cytoplasm. assorted vesicles Golgi body smooth ER rough ER Chains are assembled on ribosomes in cytoplasm.

Mitochondrial Reactions Reactions begin when pyruvate enters a mitochondrion

How Cells Make ATP Step 3: Electron transport produces many ATP molecules. –The final stage of cellular respiration occurs in the electron transport systems embedded in the inner membranes (cristae) of the mitochondrion.

Flow drives ATP formation. 1 Pyruvate from cytoplasm enters inner mitochondrial compartment. 3 NADH and FADH 2 give up electrons and H + to electron transport systems. 2 Krebs cycle and preparatory steps: NAD + and FADH 2 accept electrons and hydrogen. ATP forms. Carbon dioxide forms. 5 Oxygen accepts electrons, joins with H + to form water. 4 As electrons move through the transport system, H + is pumped to outer compartment.
