Peripheral (extrinsic) proteins Associated through electrostatic interactions & hydrogen bonding with the hydrophilic domains of integral proteins and with the polar head groups of membrane lipids, readily removable by mild treatments
- 21. Peripheral proteins anchoredby covalently attached lipids Lipids with long-chain fatty acids, isoprenoids, or glycosylated derivatives of phosphatidylinositol (GPI) Proteins with GPI anchors are exclusively on the outer face (extracellular), whereas other types of lipid-linked proteins are found exclusively on the inner face (cytosolic)
- 23. Integral proteins Integral proteinsare held in the membrane by hydrophobic interactions with lipids, i.e., firmly fixed by interaction between membrane lipids and hydrophobic domain of proteins. According to the spatial relationship of protein domains to the lipid bilayer, plasma membrane proteins fall into six categories.
- 24. Types I &II have only one transmembrane helix, the amino terminal domain is outside the cell in type I proteins and inside in type II. Type III proteins have multiple transmembrane helices in a single polypeptide. Type IV proteins have several transmembrane domains from different polypeptide chains to form a channel through the membrane Type V proteins are held to the bilayer primarily by covalently linked lipid Type VI proteins have both transmembrane helices and lipid (GPI) anchors.

- 31. Membrane fusion Specific fusionof two membranes requires: a) They recognize each other b) Their surfaces become closely apposed, which requires the removal of water molecules normally associated with the polar head groups of lipids c) Their bilayer structures become locally disrupted d) The two bilayers fuse to form a single continuous bilayer e) The fusion process is triggered at the appropriate time or in response to a specific signal

- 34. Passive Transport Membrane potential(Vm) & electric gradient Electrochemical gradient or electrochemical potential
- 37. Membrane: selectively permeable Theenergy of activation for translocation of a polar solute across the bilayer is so large that pure lipid bilayers are virtually impermeable to polar and charged species over periods of time relevant to cells. Transmembrane passage of polar compounds and ions is made possible by membrane proteins that lower the activation energy for transport by providing an alternative path for specific solutes through the lipid bilayer. These proteins are called transporters or permeases.
- 38. Transporters span thelipid bilayers at least once, and usually several times, forming a transmembrane channel lined with hydrophilic amino acid side chains. The channel provides an alternative path for a specific substrate to move across the lipid bilayer without its having to dissolve in the bilayer, further lowering the activation energy for transmembrane diffusion.

- 52. Active transport Active transportresults in solute movement against a concentration or electrochemical gradient, thus it is thermodynamically unfavorable or endergonic process, and must be coupled with other energy releasing processes. Primary active transport (coupled with energy) Secondary active transport (coupled with concentration flow) (Major energy-consuming process)
- 53. Four types oftransporters Different in structure, mechanism, localization in specific tissues and intracelluar compartments
- 54. 1. P-type ATPase:ATP driven cation transporters, reversibly phosphorylated by ATP during the transport cycle, with similar amino acid sequence, can be inhibited by phosphate analog vanadate. Generally have two types of integral protein subunits. The -subunit is essential, has Asp residue phosphorylated during transport. 2. V-type ATPase: responsible for acidifying intracelluar compartments in many organisms via proton-transporting, also called proton pump. To acidify the vacuoles of fungi and higher plants, as well as lysosomes, endosomes, the Golgi complex, and secretory vesicles in animal cells. All have an integral (transmembrane) domain as proton channel and a peripheral domain containing the ATP-binding site and the ATPase activity.
- 55. 3. F-type ATPase:central role in energy-conserving reactions in bacteria, mitochondria and chloroplasts. Catalyzes the uphill trans-membrane passage of protons driven by ATP hydrolysis, as well as the reverse reaction, in which downhill proton flow drives ATP synthesis. (ATP synthases). 4. Multidrug transporter: responsible for removing different drugs from tumor cell cytosol, preventing their growth-inhibitory effect.
- 56. Na+K+ ATPase P-type ATPasethat cotransport Na+ and K+ Na+: lower in the cell than in the surrounding medium K+: higher in the cell than in the surrounding medium transmembrane potential of -50 to -70 mV
- 57.
- 59. Ion gradient forsecondary active transport Cells contain transport systems that couple the spontaneous, downhill flow of Na+, H+ ions to the simultaneous uphill pumping of another ion, sugar or amino acids. For example, glucose: Chemical potential Electrical potential Poison that collapses the ion gradient across cellular membrane Ionophores, ion bearers
- 60. Ion selective channels Moveinorganic ions across membrane quickly. Determine the plasma membrane’s permeability to specific ions, and together with ion pumps such as Na/K ATPase, regulate the cytosolic concentration of ions and the membrane potential. Characters: the rate of flux through channels can be orders of magnitude greater than the turnover number for a transporter, 107 to 108 ions per channel per second. Not saturable “Gated”, open or close in response to some cellular event
- 61. Ion channels Ligand-gated channels:allosteric proteins change conformation when bind to some extracellular or intracellular small molecules Acetylcholine receptor Voltage-gated ion channels: response to a change in transmembrane electrical potential K+ channel

Editor's Notes
- #4 FIGURE 11-3 Fluid mosaic model for membrane structure. The fatty acyl chains in the interior of the membrane form a fluid, hydrophobic region. Integral proteins float in this sea of lipid, held by hydrophobic interactions with their nonpolar amino acid side chains. Both proteins and lipids are free to move laterally in the plane of the bilayer, but movement of either from one leaflet of the bilayer to the other is restricted. The carbohydrate moieties attached to some proteins and lipids of the plasma membrane are exposed on the extracellular surface of the membrane.
- #6 FIGURE 11-2 Lipid composition of the plasma membrane and organelle membranes of a rat hepatocyte. The functional specialization of each membrane type is reflected in its unique lipid composition. Cholesterol is prominent in plasma membranes but barely detectable in mitochondrial membranes. Cardiolipin is a major component of the inner mitochondrial membrane but not of the plasma membrane. Phosphatidylserine, phosphatidylinositol, and phosphatidylglycerol are relatively minor components (yellow) of most membranes but serve critical functions; phosphatidylinositol and its derivatives, for example, are important in signal transductions triggered by hormones. Sphingolipids, phosphatidylcholine, and phosphatidylethanolamine are present in most membranes, but in varying proportions. Glycolipids, which are major components of the chloroplast membranes of plants, are virtually absent from animal cells.
- #8 FIGURE 11-4a Amphipathic lipid aggregates that form in water. (a) In micelles, the hydrophobic chains of the fatty acids are sequestered at the core of the sphere. There is virtually no water in the hydrophobic interior.
- #9 FIGURE 11-4b Amphipathic lipid aggregates that form in water. (b) In an open bilayer, all acyl side chains except those at the edges of the sheet are protected from interaction with water.
- #10 FIGURE 11-4c Amphipathic lipid aggregates that form in water. (c) When a two-dimensional bilayer folds on itself, it forms a closed bilayer, a three-dimensional hollow vesicle (liposome) enclosing an aqueous cavity.
- #11 FIGURE 11-5 Asymmetric distribution of phospholipids between the inner and outer monolayers of the erythrocyte plasma membrane. The distribution of a specific phospholipid is determined by treating the intact cell with phospholipase C, which cannot reach lipids in the inner monolayer (leaflet) but removes the head groups of lipids in the outer monolayer. The proportion of each head group released provides an estimate of the fraction of each lipid in the outer monolayer.
- #13 FIGURE 11-15 Two extreme states of bilayer lipids. (a) In the paracrystalline state, or gel phase, polar head groups are uniformly arrayed at the surface, and the acyl chains are nearly motionless and packed with regular geometry. (b) In the liquid-disordered state, or fluid state, acyl chains undergo much thermal motion and have no regular organization. Intermediate between these extremes is the liquid-ordered state, in which individual phospholipid molecules can diffuse laterally but the acyl groups remain extended and more or less ordered.
- #15 FIGURE 11-16 Motion of single phospholipids in a bilayer. (a) Uncatalyzed movement from one leaflet to the other is very slow, but (b) lateral diffusion within the leaflet is very rapid, requiring no catalysis. (c) Three types of phospholipid translocaters in the plasma membrane. Flippases translocate primarily aminophospholipids (phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS)) from the outer (exoplasmic) leaflet to the inner (cytosolic) leaflet; they require ATP and are members of the P-type ATPase family. Floppases move phospholipids from the cytosolic to the outer leaflet, require ATP, and are members of the ABC transporter family. Scramblases equilibrate phospholipids across both leaflets; they do not require ATP but are activated by Ca2+.
- #16 FIGURE 11-16a Motion of single phospholipids in a bilayer. (a) Uncatalyzed movement from one leaflet to the other is very slow, but (b) lateral diffusion within the leaflet is very rapid, requiring no catalysis.
- #17 FIGURE 11-16b Motion of single phospholipids in a bilayer. (a) Uncatalyzed movement from one leaflet to the other is very slow, but (b) lateral diffusion within the leaflet is very rapid, requiring no catalysis.
- #18 FIGURE 11-16c Motion of single phospholipids in a bilayer. (c) Three types of phospholipid translocaters in the plasma membrane. Flippases translocate primarily aminophospholipids (phosphatidylethanolamine (PE), phosphatidylserine (PS)) from the outer (exoplasmic) leaflet to the inner (cytosolic) leaflet; they require ATP and are members of the P-type ATPase family. Floppases move phospholipids from the cytosolic to the outer leaflet, require ATP, and are members of the ABC transporter family. Scramblases equilibrate phospholipids across both leaflets; they do not require ATP but are activated by Ca2+.
- #20 FIGURE 11-6 Peripheral, integral, and amphitropic proteins. Membrane proteins can be operationally distinguished by the conditions required to release them from the membrane. Most peripheral proteins are released by changes in pH or ionic strength, removal of Ca2+ by a chelating agent, or addition of urea or carbonate. Integral proteins are extractable with detergents, which disrupt the hydrophobic interactions with the lipid bilayer and form micelle-like clusters around individual protein molecules. Integral proteins covalently attached to a membrane lipid, such as a glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI; see Figure 11-14), can be released by treatment with phospholipase C. Amphitropic proteins are sometimes associated with membranes and sometimes not, depending on some type of regulatory process such as reversible palmitoylation.
- #21 FIGURE 11-7 Transbilayer disposition of glycophorin in an erythrocyte. One hydrophilic domain, containing all the sugar residues, is on the outer surface, and another hydrophilic domain protrudes from the inner face of the membrane. Each red hexagon represents a tetrasaccharide (containing two Neu5Ac (sialic acid), Gal, and GalNAc) Olinked to a Ser or Thr residue; the blue hexagon represents an oligosaccharide N-linked to an Asn residue. The relative size of the oligosaccharide units is larger than shown here. A segment of 19 hydrophobic residues (residues 75 to 93) forms an α helix that traverses the membrane bilayer (see Figure 11-11a). The segment from residues 64 to 74 has some hydrophobic residues and probably penetrates the outer face of the lipid bilayer, as shown.
- #25 FIGURE 11-8 Integral membrane proteins. For known proteins of the plasma membrane, the spatial relationships of protein domains to the lipid bilayer fall into six categories. Types I and II have a single transmembrane helix; the amino-terminal domain is outside the cell in type I proteins and inside in type II. Type III proteins have multiple transmembrane helices in a single polypeptide. In type IV proteins, transmembrane domains of several different polypeptides assemble to form a channel through the membrane. Type V proteins are held to the bilayer primarily by covalently linked lipids (see Figure 11-14), and type VI proteins have both transmembrane helices and lipid (GPI) anchors. In this figure, and in figures throughout the book, we represent transmembrane protein segments in their most likely conformations: as α helices of six to seven turns. Sometimes these helices are shown simply as cylinders. As relatively few membrane protein structures have been deduced by x-ray crystallography, our representation of the extramembrane domains is arbitrary and not necessarily to scale.
- #27 FIGURE 11-11 Hydropathy plots. Hydropathy index (see Table 3-1) is plotted against residue number for two integral membrane proteins. The hydropathy index for each amino acid residue in a sequence of defined length, or "window," is used to calculate the average hydropathy for that window. The horizontal axis shows the residue number in the middle of the window. (a) Glycophorin from human erythrocytes has a single hydrophobic sequence between residues 75 and 93 (yellow); compare this with Figure 11-7. (b) Bacteriorhodopsin, known from independent physical studies to have seven transmembrane helices (see Figure 11-9), has seven hydrophobic regions. Note, however, that the hydropathy plot is ambiguous in the region of segments 6 and 7. X-ray crystallography has confirmed that this region has two transmembrane segments.
- #33 FIGURE 11-22 Membrane fusion. The fusion of two membranes is central to a variety of cellular processes involving organelles and the plasma membrane.
- #36 FIGURE 11-26a Movement of solutes across a permeable membrane. (a) Net movement of an electrically neutral solute is toward the side of lower solute concentration until equilibrium is achieved. The solute concentrations on the left and right sides of the membrane are designated C1 and C2. The rate of transmembrane movement (indicated by the arrows) is proportional to the concentration gradient, C2/C1.
- #37 FIGURE 11-26b Movement of solutes across a permeable membrane. (b) Net movement of an electrically charged solute is dictated by a combination of the electrical potential (Vm) and the chemical concentration difference (C2/C1) across the membrane; net ion movement continues until this electrochemical potential reaches zero.
- #40 FIGURE 11-27 Energy changes accompanying passage of a hydrophilic solute through the lipid bilayer of a biological membrane. (a) In simple diffusion, removal of the hydration shell is highly endergonic, and the energy of activation (ΔG‡) for diffusion through the bilayer is very high. (b) A transporter protein reduces the ΔG‡ for transmembrane diffusion of the solute. It does this by forming noncovalent interactions with the dehydrated solute to replace the hydrogen bonding with water and by providing a hydrophilic transmembrane pathway.
- #41 FIGURE 11-28 Classification of transporters
- #43 FIGURE 11-29a Proposed structure of GLUT1. (a) Transmembrane helices are represented here as oblique (angled) rows of three or four amino acid residues, each row depicting one turn of the α helix. Nine of the 12 helices contain three or more polar or charged residues (blue or red), often separated by several hydrophobic residues (yellow). This representation of topology is not intended to represent three-dimensional structure.
- #44 FIGURE 11-29b Proposed structure of GLUT1. (b) A helical wheel diagram shows the distribution of polar and nonpolar residues on the surface of a helical segment. The helix is diagrammed as though observed along its axis from the amino terminus. Adjacent residues in the linear sequence are connected, and each residue is placed around the wheel in the position it occupies in the helix; recall that 3.6 residues are required to make one complete turn of the α helix. In this example, the polar residues (blue) are on one side of the helix and the hydrophobic residues (yellow) on the other. This is, by definition, an amphipathic helix.
- #45 FIGURE 11-29c Proposed structure of GLUT1. (c) Side-by-side association of four amphipathic helices, each with its polar face oriented toward the central cavity, can produce a transmembrane channel lined with polar (and charged) residues. This channel provides many opportunities for hydrogen bonding with glucose as it moves through.
- #46 FIGURE 11-30a Kinetics of glucose transport into erythrocytes. (a) The initial rate of glucose entry into an erythrocyte, V0, depends on the initial concentration of glucose on the outside, [S]out.
- #47 FIGURE 11-30b Kinetics of glucose transport into erythrocytes. (b) Double-reciprocal plot of the data in (a). The kinetics of facilitated diffusion is analogous to the kinetics of an enzyme-catalyzed reaction. Compare these plots with Figure 6-11, and with Figure 1 in Box 6-1. Note that Kt is analogous to Km, the Michaelis constant.
- #48 FIGURE 11-31 Model of glucose transport into erythrocytes by GLUT1. The transporter exists in two conformations: T1, with the glucose-binding site exposed on the outer surface of the plasma membrane, and T2, with the binding site exposed on the inner surface. Glucose transport occurs in four steps. 1 Glucose in blood plasma binds to a stereospecific site on T1; this lowers the activation energy for 2 a conformational change from glucoseout • T1 to glucosein • T2, effecting the transmembrane passage of the glucose. 3 Glucose is released from T2 into the cytoplasm, and 4 the transporter returns to the T1 conformation, ready to transport another glucose molecule.
- #51 FIGURE 11-33 Three general classes of transport systems. Transporters differ in the number of solutes (substrates) transported and the direction in which each solute moves. Examples of all three types of transporters are discussed in the text. Note that this classification tells us nothing about whether these are energy-requiring (active transport) or energy-independent (passive transport) processes.
