what is an integral membrane protein and funtion?
It penetrates the hydrophobic core of the lipid bilayer and it is made up of nonpolar amino acids coiled into strectches of a helices
what is a peripheral membrane protein and its function?
they are not embedded in the lipid bilayer but instead are bound to the surface to exposed part of integral
what does the extra cellular matrix consist of?
It consists of collagen,carbohydratess,glycolipids,glycoproteins,integrins,polysaccharide molecules,and prteoglycan
what are six major kind of functions that membrane proteins perform?
transport,enzymatic activity,signal transduction,intercellular joining,(glycoproteins)cell-cell recognition and attachment to ECM
according to the fluid mosaic model proteins of membrane are mostly
embedded in a lipid bilayer made up of phospholipds and extend through it
what factor would tend to increase membrane fluidity?
the more unsaturated phospholipds it has because of the kinks in it
what moelcule allows for celll-to cell recognition?
glycoproteins that have oligosaccharides
what is a proton pump and what does it do?
it is an electrogenic pump meaning that it transfers voltage across the membrane and store enrgy and translocates psoitive charfge in form of hyrogen ions
what is active transport and what kind of enrgy is used?
active transport requires the cell to expend its own metabolic energy to move solutes against their concentration gradient.
what is the sodium and potassium pump and which one moves in and which one moves out?
it exchanges three sodium ions (out)for two potassium ions(inside)
what is membrane potential?
it is the voltage across a membrane caused by unequal distribution of cations (+ move inside) and anions.
what is cotransport?
it is when a molecule is pumped through membrane and leaks back through diffusion to do more work and move another molecule through the cell.one diffuses down and one diffuses againt gradient
where does sodium potassium pump occur and what about the proton pump?
the K+ and Na+ occur in the animal cell
what is excoytosis and explain what endocytosis
the fusion of vessicles witht he plasma membrane to secrete macromolecules is the Endo is the reverse and forms new vessicles from taking in macromolecules
what is receptor-mediated endocytosis and and ligands and what lipoproteins bind travel this way?
bulk quantities of sepcific substances bind to receptors called ligands then clustered in coated pits and then become new vessicle.cholesterol
what do vessicles do?
transport substances between cell and surrounding and remodel plasma membrane
what molecules can pass easily through the plasma membrane and what travels through facilitated diffusion?
hydrophobic (co2 and O) molecules and very small uncharged molecules and for facilitated diffusion hydrophillic and ions can
pinocytosis
phagocytosis
cell gulps extracellular fluid unsepecific and phagoctosis engulfs particle and digests
the membrane potential favors..
canions into the cell and anions out
how would cholesterol proteins be oriented before reaching plasma membrane?
facing inside ER and inside transport vessicle membrane
what are the components of the cytoskelteon?
microtublules
intermediate filaments
microfilaments
what are microtubules?
walls made up of tubulin(gobular protein) serve as tracks for motor molecules
arraged as two centrioles with 9 mc's,cell motility(cilia and flagella)
chromosome movements
what are intermediate filaments?
fibrous proteins part of keratin family anchorage of organells and make up nuclear lamina
what are microfilaments?
made up of two strands one of actin and smaller actin subunits responsible for changes in cell shape muscle contraction,cel division and cytoplasmic streaming
what are desomosomes?
desmosomes are called anchoring jucntions fasten cells together like strong sheets
what takes place in the nucleolus and what is nuclear lamina made of?
nulceolus involved in production of ribosomes and hold chromatin and
lamina is nuclear side of envelope containg intermediate filaments
what makes up the endomembrane system?
nulcear envelope,ER,Golgi apparatus lysososomes,vacuoles and related plasma membrane
where are smooth ER located and fucntion?
synthesis of lipids,metabolism of carbohydrates,detoxification of drugs etc.secrete hormones
where are rough Er located and function?
secrete proteins glycoproteins bonded to carbos
what is the difefrence between cilia and flagella?
differ in beating patterns c has back and forth flagella has swimming contains microtubule that make up 9+2 pattern
centrosome
region outside of nucleus
where mictrotubules grow out of
centrioles
within centrosome composed of ninesets of microtubules in a ring
gap junctions
provide cytoclasmic channels between cells big enought for small molecules to pass cordinate contarction of cells
tight junction
prevent backword flow of fluids
where are free ribosomes found?
cytosol catalyze first steps of a reaction
what do bound ribosomes do and where are they?
found on ER protein secretion inserted into membranes packaging export
What is myosin?
protein acts as motor molecule by rubbing against actin of microfilaments (movement and pinches dividing animal cells
what is cytoplasmic streaming?
circular flow of cytoplasm within plant cells brought on by actin and myosin and sol gel transformations
middle lamella of plants?
pectin
