Overview
ī‚§ Cell membrane separates living cell from
nonliving surroundings
īĩ thin barrier = 8nm thick
ī‚§ Controls traffic in & out of the cell
īĩ selectively permeable

AP Biology
More than lipidsâ€Ļ
ī‚§ In 1972, S.J. Singer & G. Nicolson
proposed that membrane proteins are
inserted into the phospholipid bilayer

The cell-membrane

  • 1. AP Biology 2007-2008 The Cell Membrane
  • 2. AP Biology Overview ī‚§ Cell membrane separates living cell from nonliving surroundings īĩ thin barrier = 8nm thick ī‚§ Controls traffic in & out of the cell īĩ selectively permeable īĩ allows some substances to cross more easily than others ī‚§ hydrophobic vs hydrophilic ī‚§ Made of phospholipids, proteins & other macromolecules
  • 3. AP Biology Phospholipids Fatty acid Phosphate ī‚§ Fatty acid tails īĩ hydrophobic ī‚§ Phosphate group head īĩ hydrophilic ī‚§ Arranged as a bilayer Aaaah, one of those structure–function examples
  • 5. AP Biology More than lipidsâ€Ļ ī‚§ In 1972, S.J. Singer & G. Nicolson proposed that membrane proteins are inserted into the phospholipid bilayer It’s like a fluidâ€Ļ It’s like a mosaicâ€Ļ It’s the Fluid Mosaic Model!
  • 6. AP Biology Membrane is a collage of proteins & other molecules embedded in the fluid matrix of the lipid bilayer Extracellular fluid Cholesterol Cytoplasm Glycolipid Transmembrane proteins Filaments of cytoskeleton Peripheral protein Glycoprotein Phospholipids
  • 7. AP Biology Membrane fat composition varies ī‚§ Fat composition affects flexibility īĩ membrane must be fluid & flexible ī‚§ about as fluid as thick salad oil īĩ % unsaturated fatty acids in phospholipids ī‚§ keep membrane less viscous ī‚§ cold-adapted organisms, like winter wheat īˇ increase % in autumn īĩ cholesterol in membrane
  • 8. AP Biology Membrane Proteins ī‚§ Proteins determine membrane’s specific functions īĩ cell membrane & organelle membranes each have unique collections of proteins ī‚§ Membrane proteins: īĩ peripheral proteins ī‚§ loosely bound to surface of membrane ī‚§ cell surface identity marker (antigens) īĩ integral proteins ī‚§ penetrate lipid bilayer, usually across whole membrane ī‚§ transmembrane protein ī‚§ transport proteins īˇ channels, permeases (pumps)
  • 9. AP Biology 2007-2008 Why are proteins the perfect molecule to build structures in the cell membrane?
  • 10. AP Biology Classes of amino acids What do these amino acids have in common? nonpolar & hydrophobic
  • 11. AP Biology Classes of amino acids What do these amino acids have in common? polar & hydrophilic I like the polar ones the best!
  • 12. AP Biology Proteins domains anchor molecule ī‚§ Within membrane īĩ nonpolar amino acids ī‚§ hydrophobic ī‚§ anchors protein into membrane ī‚§ On outer surfaces of membrane īĩ polar amino acids ī‚§ hydrophilic ī‚§ extend into extracellular fluid & into cytosol Polar areas of protein Nonpolar areas of protein
  • 13. AP Biology NH2 H+ COOH Cytoplasm Retinal chromophore Nonpolar (hydrophobic) a-helices in the cell membrane H+ Porin monomer b-pleated sheets Bacterial outer membrane proton pump channel in photosynthetic bacteria water channel in bacteria function through conformational change = shape change Examples
  • 14. AP Biology Many Functions of Membrane Proteins Outside Plasma membrane Inside Transporter Cell surface receptor Enzyme activity Cell surface identity marker Attachment to the cytoskeleton Cell adhesion
  • 15. AP Biology Membrane carbohydrates ī‚§ Play a key role in cell-cell recognition īĩ ability of a cell to distinguish one cell from another ī‚§ antigens īĩ important in organ & tissue development īĩ basis for rejection of foreign cells by immune system
  • 17. AP Biology 2007-2008 Movement across the Cell Membrane
  • 18. AP Biology Diffusion ī‚§ 2nd Law of Thermodynamics governs biological systems īĩ universe tends towards disorder (entropy) ī‚§ Diffusion īĩ movement from high ī‚Ž low concentration
  • 19. AP Biology Diffusion ī‚§ Move from HIGH to LOW concentration īĩ “passive transport” īĩ no energy needed diffusion osmosis movement of water
  • 20. AP Biology Diffusion across cell membrane ī‚§ Cell membrane is the boundary between inside & outsideâ€Ļ īĩ separates cell from its environment IN food carbohydrates sugars, proteins amino acids lipids salts, O2, H2O OUT waste ammonia salts CO2 H2O products cell needs materials in & products or waste out IN OUT Can it be an impenetrable boundary? NO!
  • 21. AP Biology Diffusion through phospholipid bilayer ī‚§ What molecules can get through directly? īĩ fats & other lipids inside cell outside cell lipid salt aa H2Osugar NH3 ī‚§ What molecules can NOT get through directly? īĩ polar molecules ī‚§ H2O īĩ ions ī‚§ salts, ammonia īĩ large molecules ī‚§ starches, proteins
  • 22. AP Biology Channels through cell membrane ī‚§ Membrane becomes semi-permeable with protein channels īĩ specific channels allow specific material across cell membrane inside cell outside cell sugaraaH2O saltNH3
  • 23. AP Biology Facilitated Diffusion ī‚§ Diffusion through protein channels īĩ channels move specific molecules across cell membrane īĩ no energy needed “The Bouncer” open channel = fast transport facilitated = with help high low
  • 24. AP Biology Active Transport “The Doorman” conformational change ī‚§ Cells may need to move molecules against concentration gradient īĩ shape change transports solute from one side of membrane to other īĩ protein “pump” īĩ “costs” energy = ATP ATP low high
  • 25. AP Biology symportantiport Active transport ī‚§ Many models & mechanisms ATP ATP
  • 26. AP Biology Getting through cell membrane ī‚§ Passive Transport īĩ Simple diffusion ī‚§ diffusion of nonpolar, hydrophobic molecules īˇ lipids īˇ high ī‚Ž low concentration gradient īĩ Facilitated transport ī‚§ diffusion of polar, hydrophilic molecules ī‚§ through a protein channel īˇ high ī‚Ž low concentration gradient ī‚§ Active transport īĩ diffusion against concentration gradient ī‚§ low ī‚Ž high īĩ uses a protein pump īĩ requires ATP ATP
  • 28. AP Biology How about large molecules? ī‚§ Moving large molecules into & out of cell īĩ through vesicles & vacuoles īĩ endocytosis ī‚§ phagocytosis = “cellular eating” ī‚§ pinocytosis = “cellular drinking” īĩ exocytosis exocytosis
  • 29. AP Biology Endocytosis phagocytosis pinocytosis receptor-mediated endocytosis fuse with lysosome for digestion non-specific process triggered by molecular signal
  • 30. AP Biology 2007-2008 The Special Case of Water Movement of water across the cell membrane
  • 31. AP Biology Osmosis is diffusion of water ī‚§ Water is very important to life, so we talk about water separately ī‚§ Diffusion of water from high concentration of water to low concentration of water īĩ across a semi-permeable membrane
  • 32. AP Biology Concentration of water ī‚§ Direction of osmosis is determined by comparing total solute concentrations īĩ Hypertonic - more solute, less water īĩ Hypotonic - less solute, more water īĩ Isotonic - equal solute, equal water hypotonic hypertonic water net movement of water
  • 33. AP Biology freshwater balanced saltwater Managing water balance ī‚§ Cell survival depends on balancing water uptake & loss
  • 34. AP Biology Managing water balance ī‚§ Isotonic īĩ animal cell immersed in mild salt solution ī‚§ example: blood cells in blood plasma ī‚§ problem: none īˇno net movement of water īŽ flows across membrane equally, in both directions īˇvolume of cell is stable balanced
  • 35. AP Biology Managing water balance ī‚§ Hypotonic īĩ a cell in fresh water ī‚§ example: Paramecium ī‚§ problem: gains water, swells & can burst īˇ water continually enters Paramecium cell ī‚§ solution: contractile vacuole īˇ pumps water out of cell īˇ ATP īĩ plant cells ī‚§ turgid freshwater ATP
