endomembrane system
protein synthesis
Cytosol
DNA and RNA synthesis
Nucleus
Synthesis of most lipids
ER
Intracellular degradation
Lysosomes
ATP synthesis by oxidative phosphorylation
Mitochondria
Movement of proteins into and out of the nucleus
Gated transport
Protein transported from the cytosol into the ER, the mitochondria, the chloroplast and the peroxisome
Transmembrane transport
Movement of proteins from the ER into the Golgi,lysosome, and the plasma membrane.
Vesicular transport
The absence of a sorting signal results in?
cytosolic localization
Fibrous layer on the inner surface of the inner nuclear membrane made up of a network of intermediate filaments
Nuclear lamina
Double membrane surrounding the nucleus. Consists of outer and inner membranes perforated by nuclear pores.
Nuclear envelope
Channel through the nuclear envelope that allows selected molecules to move between Nucleus and cytoplasm
Nuclear pore
small membrane-bounded organelle with a cage of proteins (the coat) on its cytosolic surface. It is formed by the pinching off of a coated region of membrane
Coated vesicle
Is a protein which plays a major role in the formation of coated vesicles.
clathrin
One or two short sequences containing several positive charged Lys or Arg (lysines or arginines)
Nuclear localization signal (NLS)
These cytosolic proteins bind to the nuclear localized signal and help direct the new protein to the pore by interacting with the nuclear pore fibrils.
Nuclear Transport Receptors (NTR)
These proteins inside the organelles help to pull the protein across the two membranes of mito., chloro, perioxisome, and to REFOLD the protein once it is inside.
Chaperone proteins
Phospholipids are transported individually to mito and chloroplasts by?
water-soluble lipid carrying proteins
a segment of eight or more hydrophobic amino acids that are also involved in the process of translocation across the membrane
ER signal sequence or ER targeting sequence
ribosomes that are attached to the cytosolic side of the ER membrane (and outer nuclear membrane) and are making proteins that are being translocated in the ER.
Membrane-bound ribosomes
ribosomes unattached to any membrane and are making all of the other proteins encoded by the nuclear DNA.
Free ribosome
mRNA molecule with many ribosomes bound to it
polyribosome
What two components guide the ER signal sequence to the ER membrane?
signal-recognition particle (SRP) and SRP receptor
Membrane vesicles that carry proteins from one intracellular comp. to another.
transport vesicle
formed by the coming together of the translocation channels from both the outer and inner mitochondrial membrane
contact site
recognizes the 5' capped end of the mRNA and starts scanning the molecule for AUG
Initiation complex
mechanism that is used when the proteins are said to be targeted to their correct subcellular destination
"post-translational
A discrete structure in eukaryotic cells that is specialized to carry out a particular function.
Organelle
Proteins recognized by the NPC contain a signal sequence called?
Nuclear localization signal (NLS)
Proteins that are transported into and out of nucleus are completely
FOLDED
Proteins that are exported have a targeting signal called?
Nuclear export signal (N.E.S)
Channels are referred to as --------- a specific stimulus triggers a switch between an open and closed
gated
"Selectivity filter"
Ion channels
Types of gating stimuli: Probability of opening is controlled by membrane potential
Voltage-gating
when ion channel is going from closed to open
gating
Types of gating stimuli: Chemical ligand binding controls channel opening
Ligand-gated
Type of gating; Mechanical forces placed on the channel controls opening
Stress-gated
specialized protein domain that is sensitive to changes in membrane potential
voltage sensor
RANDOMLY switch between an open and a closed state.
K+ leak channels
Protein embedded in a membrane that serves as a carrier of ions or small molecules from one side to the other.
Membrane transport protein
The rate at which a molecule can actively diffuse through a synthetic lipid bilayer depends on size of the molecule and its solubility properties. TRUE or FALSE
FALSE: passively diffuse
Passage of material based on size and charge
Channel proteins
spontaneous movement, down a gradient, NO energy
Passive transport
Nonspontaneous movement- requires energy
Active transport
CO2, ethanol, O2, and fat soluble molecules move down is conc. gradient by
Simple Diffusion
example; The passive transport of glucose acoss the plasma membrane is an example of what?
Change in carrier protein conformation
Glucose binding is required to trigger the change in conformation in carrier protein? T/F
False: Glucose binding is NOT required
When glucose is going from outside of the cell to the inside of the cell it is going AGAINST its conc. grad.? T/F
False: Glucose when going from outside to inside is going DOWN its conc. grad.
Direction of transport of carrier protein is dictated by the conc. gradient of the solute.? T/F
TRUE
The outside of the plasma membrane is negative and the cytoplasmic side is positive. T/F
False; the cytoplasmic side is negative and the outside is relatively POSITIVE
The conc. grad. and the voltage across the membrane (membrane potential) is referred to as?
Electrochemical gradient.
Driving force that causes an ion to move across a membrane. Caused by differences in ion conc. and in electrical charge on either side of the membrane.
Electrochemical gradient
Membrane transport process in which the transfer of one molecule depends on the simultaneous or sequential transfer of a second molecule
Coupled transport
Na+ out of the cell (30% of energy) and K+ going in the cell. both against the gradient.
