Membrane Structure
2
Review: Phospholipid structure and properties *amphipathic
3
Membrane Models: 1935 Today Cell biology at work: membranes “uncovered” *Membranes are fluid
4
Membranes are fluid
5
*Some functions of membrane proteins: Transport Enzymatic activity Signal transduction Intercellular junction Cell recognition Anchors
6
Membrane Transport *Channel protein *Carrier protein
7
Traffic across membranes *Passive transport *Active transport Passive transport *Selective permeability *Diffusion
8
Osmosis is the passive transport of water When comparing two solutions: *hypertonic *hypotonic *isotonic
9
Passive transport Facilitated diffusion Channel proteins and carrier proteins *Each cell membrane has characteristic set of carrier proteins
10
*Active transport Example: sodium-potassium pump
11
Electrogenic pump: *Some ion pumps generate voltage across membranes *Voltage *Membrane potential
