Proteins interact with the membrane in multiple ways.
|
Transmembrane
Peripheral Lipid anchored |
|
____ - entire protein extends through the lipid bilayer

Transmembrane
|
|
____ - protein is associated with membrane, but not part of it.
|
Peripheral
|
|
____ - has a lipid "foot" - a lipid "tail" stabilizes the protein's position on the membrane.
|
Lipid anchored
|
|
Using ____ markers to track movement of proteins in a membrane allows us to document membrane fluidity.
|
fluorescent
|
|
Some membrane proteins are ____ and cannot move freely in the membrane, this is due to the ____.
|
bound/anchored
cytoskeleton |
|
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
High permeability - |
CO2, O2
Cells do not need to do anything so we can breathe, almost all concentration gradients - both ways. |
|
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
Moderate permeability - |
Water
Good so we do not have to work so hard to have the right amount of water on either side of the cell. |
|
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
Low permeability - |
glucose
It is polar, so it cannot get past the phospholipid bilayer |
|
Permeability of lipid bilayer alone:
Very low permeability - |
charged ions, charged polar molecules, large/macro molecules
|
|
Inside of the cell is typically ___ milivolts versus the outside.
The outside is more ____, because there is more ____ charged ions on the outside. |
