Course Objectives
• To understand the molecular basis of life at
the cellular level
• Focusing on general principles and
molecular mechanisms.
• Therefore, we assume general knowledge of
Macromolecular structures and Chemical
bonds, equilibrium constants, and rate
constants

7nd week : Membrane and Channel
9nd week : Membrane Trafficking
11nd week : Cell Signaling
13nd week : Cytoskeleton
15nd week : Cell Cycle
Syllabus
Cells
Basic Functional Units of all living organism
Mouse Embryonic Fibroblast
(MEF)
Cells
Evolution of Life
Prebiotic origin of life:
Details are uncertain; RNA may have dominated early biochemistry.
Common ancestor of all modern cells existed ~3.5 billion years ago with
about 600 genes.
Life diverged from this common origin by natural selection of favorable
random mutations.
Lateral transfer of genes among species has contributed to genetic
diversity during evolution.
Typical Eukaryotic cells were composed
with various component
Main difference with Eukaryotic and Procaryotic Cells
- Compartmentation by inner cell membrane
Nucleus
Mitochondria
Lysosome
What is difference betweeen
complicated machine and living
cell?
Both are composed with various ‘component’
Performed as ‘defined’ task
What is difference between them?
General Characteristics of Living Cell
Self-Replication and Generation
Every cell has their own ‘design sheet’ as form of DNA
DNA-RNA-Protein
Macromolecules (Protein, DNA) assembled with each other and forms cellular structure
In Nucleus..
DNA is replicated in HERE
Transcriptions are carried out in HERE
Splicing are carried out in HERE
ER
Most Protein synthesis (Translation) happen in ER
Proteins were transported via ER and Golgi to their destination
Membrane / Cell-To-Cell Junction
Cytoskeleton
Transports
Chemical Principle of Cell Biology
Water
Proteins
Nucleic Acids
DNA
RNA
Carbohydrate
Lipids
Uncharged
Polar Uncharged
Charged
Post-translational modification of amino acid
Important for regulation of proteins
Amino Acids = Polypeptides Covalent Bonds (공유결합)
Secondary Structure (Hydrogen Interactions)
Three-dimensional Structure of Protein determine their functions
What is main driving force for Three-dimensional structure of Protein folding?
Main driving force for tertiary structure formation : Van der waals interactions
Most protein are in water
Hydrophilic (charged, polar) amino acid residues tend to be in protein surface
Hydrophobic residues avoids water (core packing)
Three-dimensional Structure of Protein (and macromocules) determine their functions
To Understand how complicate machine works,
You should know the shape and function of each component
To Understand deeply function of a specific component, you need to know about structure of
functions
These approach are also same in proteins
Cas9-sgRNA-DNA Complex (Nureki et al., Cell 2014)
Some proteins have multiple conformations
It is difficult to understand how horse can run with this
single frame of picture..
But if we have series of still images of horse running,
we can figure out how horse can run..
To understand how to protein do their jobs, we need
Series of ‘snapshot’ structure.
GDP or GTP mediated
Conformational change of
Rab28 GTPase
Nucleic Acids
DNA conformation: most commonly a double helix with complementary TA and GC
base pairs.
Encode genetic information in sequence.
RNA structures take on highly diverse conformations, including helical regions with
complementary base pairs.
Structural RNA : Hammerhead ribozyme
Molecular Crowding : Cell is very packed..
Not like this
Cellular Transport inside Cells
More likely this
It will cost lots of energe for sure. 
