Osmotic Pressure/Tonicity
Osmotic Pressure (Osmolarity) – ability of solute to generate enough pressure to move a volume of water by osmosis
*Osmotic pressure increases as the number of nonpermeable solutes particles increases
• isotonic – same osmotic pressure as a second solution
• hypertonic – higher osmotic pressure
• hypOtonic – lower osmotic pressure

A Closer Look at Mitochondria
Strategically placed in cell where ATP demand is high
Concentration of enzymes in the matrix is so high that there is virtually no hydrating water. Enzyme-linked reactions and pathways are so crowded that normal rules of diffusion do not apply!

Anaerobic Glycolysis & Lactic Acid
During glycolysis, if O2 is not present in sufficient quantity, lactic acid is generated to keep glycolysis going so it continues to generate ATP (even without mitochondria)
NOTE what happens with and without O2 being available…

Purpose Breakdown of glucose (6 carbons) to 2
molecules of pyruvate (3 carbons)
Generation of energy intermediates (NADH, FADH2, ATP) and CO2
Generation of ATP and reduction of O2 to H2O (Recall that reduction is the addition of
electrons)What goes on 1. Glucose is
converted to pyruvate, which is converted to acetyl CoA when there is sufficient O2 present.2. Acetyl CoA enters the TCA cycle.3. If O2 is not present, pyruvate is converted to lactic acid to replenish the supply of NAD+ so glycolysis can continue to make ATP
1. The energy in acetyl CoA is trapped in activated carriers of electrons (NADH, FADH2) and activated carriers of phosphate groups (ATP). 2. The carries of electrons that trap the energy from acetyl CoA bring their high energy electrons to the electron transport chain.
1. Chemiosmosis (that drives oxidative phosphorylation) uses the electrons donated by NADH and FADH2 to eject H+ from the matrix of the mitochondria to the intermembrane space. 2. These H+ then flow down their concentration gradient through a protein (ATP synthase) that makes ATP from ADP and phosphate.3. During this process, the H+
that come through the channel in ATP synthase are combined with O2 to make H2O.
Summary Table of Cell Respiration

Cell Nucleus• control center of cell
• nuclear envelope (membrane)
• porous double membrane• separates nucleoplasm from cytoplasm (*eukaryotes only)
• nucleolus• dense collection of RNA and proteins• site of ribosome production
• chromatin• fibers of DNA and proteins• stores information for synthesis of proteins Figure From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson
The Cell Cycle
• series of changes a cell undergoes from the time it forms until the time it divides
• stages • interphase• mitosis• cytoplasmic division• differentiation
Differentiated cells may spend all their time in ‘G0’ (neurons, skeletal muscle, red blood cells). Stem cells may never enter G0
Figure From: Marieb & Hoehn, Human Anatomy & Physiology, 9th ed., Pearson
Why the Cell Cycle Must Have Controls
1. DNA/Cell replication must not proceed unless a ‘signal to proceed’ is received
2. DNA must be completely and correctly replicate before mitosis takes place otherwise it should not occur.
3. Chromosomes must be correctly positioned during mitosis so they are separated correctly
What are the Controls of the Cell Cycle?
• cell division capacities vary greatly among cell types• skin and bone marrow cells divide often• liver cells divide a specific number of times then cease
• chromosome tips (telomeres) that shorten with each mitosis provide a mitotic clock (cell senescence)
• cells divide to provide a more favorable surface area to volume relationship
• growth factors and hormones stimulate cell division• hormones stimulate mitosis of smooth muscle cells in uterus• epidermal growth factor stimulates growth of new skin
• tumors are the consequence of a loss of cell cycle control
• contact inhibition
• Cyclins and Cyclin-dependent kinases provide central control

Mitosis and MeiosisFigures from: Martini, Anatomy & Physiology, Prentice Hall, 2001
Mitosis – production of two identical diploid daughter cells
Meiosis – production of four genetically varied, haploid gametes
The Cell Cycle and Mitosis
• I (INTERPHASE)
• PASSED (PROPHASE)
• MY (METAPHASE)
• ANATOMY (ANAPHASE)
• TEST (TELOPHASE/CYTOKINESIS)
Interphase and Mitosis (IPMAT)
20
Interphase Early Prophase Late Prophase
Metaphase Anaphase Telophase/Cytokinesis
21
Cell Death• Two mechanisms of cell death
– Necrosis– Programmed cell death (PCD or apoptosis)
• Necrosis– Tissue degeneration following cellular injury or
destruction– Cellular contents released into the environment
causing an inflammatory response
• Programmed Cell Death (Apoptosis)– Orderly, contained cell disintegration– Cellular contents are contained and cell is
immediately phagocytosed
22
Stem and Progenitor Cells
Stem cell • can divide to form two new stem cells• can divide to form a stem cell and a progenitor cell• totipotent – can give rise to any cell type (Embryonic stem cells)• pluripotent – can give rise to a restricted number of cell types
Progenitor cell • committed cell further along differentiation pathway• can divide to become any of a restricted number of cells • pluripotent• *not self-renewing, like stem cells
23
Some Definitions…
Gene – segment of DNA that codes for a protein or RNA- About 30,000 protein-encoding genes in humans- DNA’s instructions are ultimately responsible for the ability of the cell to make ALL its components
*Chromatin – combination of DNA plus histone proteins used to pack DNA in the cell nucleus
Genome – complete set of genes of an organism- Human Genome Project was complete in 2001- Genomes of other organisms are important also
Genetic Code – method used to translate a sequence of nucleotides of DNA into a sequence of amino acids
24
Structure of Nucleic Acids
Figure from: Alberts et al., Essential Cell Biology, Garland Press, 1998
Purines: Adenine and Guanine (double ring)
Pyrimidines: Cytosine, Thymine, and Uracil (single ring)
25
Structure of DNA
A double-stranded DNA molecule is created by BASE-PAIRING of the nitrogenous bases via HYDROGEN bonds.
Notice the orientation of the sugars on each stand.
*DNA is an antiparallel, double-stranded polynucleotide helix

Structure of DNA
Base pairing in DNA is VERY specific. - Adenine only pairs with Thymine (A-T) - Guanine only pairs with Cytosine (G-C)
Note that there are:
- THREE hydrogen bonds in G-C pairs
- TWO hydrogen bonds in A-T pairs
- A purine (two rings)base hydrogen bonds with a pyrimidine base (one ring)

DNA Replication
Figure from: Martini, “Human Anatomy & Physiology”, Prentice Hall, 2001
THINGS TO NOTE:
1. DNA is replicated in the S phase of the cell cycle
2. New strands are synthesized in a 5’ to 3’ direction
3. DNA polymerase has a proofreading function (1 mistake in 109 nucleotides copied!)
4. Semi-conservative replication describes pairing of post-replication strands of DNA (1 new, 1 old)

RNA
• RNA is a polynucleotide with important differences from DNA– Uses Uracil (U) rather than Thymine (T)– Uses the pentose sugar, ribose– Usually single-stranded
• There are three important types of RNA– mRNA (carries code for proteins)– tRNA (the adapter for translation)– rRNA (forms ribosomes, for protein synthesis)
29
Transciption/Translation
• Transcription – generates mRNA from DNA– Occurs in nucleus of the cell– Uses ribonucleotides and RNA polymerase to synthesize
mRNA
• Translation – generates polypeptides (proteins) from mRNA– Occurs in the cytoplasm of the cell – Uses 3 components: mRNA, tRNA w/aa, and ribosomes
30
The Genetic Code
1. Codon – group of three ribonucleotides found in mRNA that specifies an aa
2. Anticodon – group of three ribonucleotides found in tRNA that allows specific hydrogen bonding with mRNA
3. AUG is a start codon and also codes for MET. UAA, UAG, and UGA are stop codons that terminate the translation of the mRNA strand.
Find the AMINO ACID SEQUENCE that corresponds to the following gene region on the DNA:
Template -> C T A A G T A C T
Coding -> G A T T C A T G A
32
tRNAs
Transfer RNAs (tRNA) function as ‘adapters’ to allow instructions in the form of nucleic acid to be converted to amino acids.

Eukaryotic Genes
Figure from: Alberts et al., Essential Cell Biology, Garland Publishing, 1998
The template strand of DNA is the one that’s transcribed.
The coding strand of DNA is used as the complementary strand for the template strand in DNA and looks like the codons.

Eukaryotic mRNA Modification
Figure from: Alberts et al., Essential Cell Biology, Garland Publishing, 1998
Newly made eukaryotic mRNA molecules (primary transcripts) undergo modification in the nucleus prior to being exported to the cytoplasm.

The Fate of Proteins in the Cell
• Breakdown of proteins regulates the amount of a given protein that exists at any time.
• Each protein has unique lifetime, but the lifetimes of different proteins varies tremendously.
• Proteins with short life-spans, that are misfolded, or that become oxidized must be destroyed and recycled by the cell.
Enzymes that degrade proteins are called proteases. They are hydrolytic enzymes.
Most large cytosolic proteins in eukaryotes are degraded by enzyme complexes called proteasomes.
