1
Membrane Structure & Function
2
Membrane Models 1935-1970 Sandwich Model 1972- Present Fluid-Mosaic Model
6
Membrane Transport (Passive) Glucose, amino acids 1 2
7
Diffusion Steepness of concentration gradient Temperature Mass of diffusing substance Surface area Diffusion distance
8
2 types of membrane transport Passive vs Active
9
Channel-mediated Facilitated Diffusion of Potassium ions through a Gated K + Channel
10
Glucose transporter Glucose gradient Glucose Extracellular fluid Plasma membrane Cytosol 1 Glucose transporter Glucose gradient Glucose Extracellular fluid Plasma membrane Cytosol 1 2 Glucose transporter Glucose gradient Glucose Extracellular fluid Plasma membrane Cytosol 1 2 3

12
Crenation Hemolysis Cytolysis
13
Plasmolysis – the shriveling of the cell membrane due to loss of water (osmosis) Turgor pressure – the force directed against the cell wall after the influx of water (osmosis)
14
Filtration is movement of water and solute molecules across the cell membrane due to hydrostatic pressure generated by the cardiovascular system.pressure
15
Requires Energy: ex.: thyroid gland concentrates Iodine glucose is completely absorbed by digestive tract sodium potassium pump
16
Active Transport I. Solutes are transported across plasma membranes with the use of energy, from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher Concentration *Sodium-potassium pump *Thyroid gland *Intestines (glucose) II. 2 sources of energy 1. ATP (Primary active transport) 2. Energy stored in Ion concentration gradients (Secondary active transport) **40% of a cell’s ATP is used for Primary active transport Cyanide shuts down active tranport by turning off ATP production 1 3 Na + K + gradient Cytosol 1 3 Na + expelled 3 Na + ADP P P 2 K + imported K + gradient Na + gradient Na + /K + ATPase Extracellular fluid Cytosol 2K + ATP 234
18
18 Secondary Active Transport Mechanisms Antiporters carry two substances across the membrane in opposite directions (Digitalis) Symporters carry two substances across the membrane in the same direction
19
Endocytosis – taking in large amounts of material (bulk flow)
20
Ex. LDL cholesterol (bad cholesterol)
