Membranes• Everything in life is variable
– Chaotic
• Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism– E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates– E.g. streets organize traffic
• Selectively permeable– Allows some things in & blocks some
things
• Plasma membrane (cell) – Takes up what cell needs & takes out the
trash

• Thin, requires EM at 200,000x
• 3 zones– Construction of Phospolipids

Phospholipid
• Polar, hydrophilic head– Phosphate group– React and interact with
the environment
• Non-polar, hydrophobic tail– Two-tailed fatty acid
![Page 4: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
• Relation w/ water = Phospholipid Bi-layer– Non-polar, hydrophobic molecules move more freely
through the membrane (soluble in lipids)• E.g. vessicles and vacuoles transporting packages
throughout membrane system• E.g. soap to clean (breakdown) grease
– Polar molecules & ions not soluble

• Membrane = Fluid mosaic of phospholipids and proteins
![Page 7: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
• Mosaic = diverse proteins embedded in phospholipids
• Fluid = proteins can drift laterally within bi-layer

• Cholesterol – helps stabilize at body temperature & maintains fluidity at lowered temperatures
• Glycolipids & glycoprotiens– Carbohydrate ID tags
• E.g. immune system recognizes good cells from bacterial cells• E.g. embryonic development – cells differentiate (tissues & organs)
• Proteins – do most of the work

Membrane Proteins• Very diverse
– E.g. >50 different proteins in plasma membrane of human blood cells
• Enzymes – catalyze molecule assembly (e.g. modify by increasing rate)
• Receptors – messengers from other cells (e.g. hormones)
• Transport – allows large molecules to pass

Passive Transport = diffusion
• Diffusion = natural tendency of particles to spread evenly (from high concentration to low concentration) to reach balance
• No energy required
![Page 11: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
• Many smaller molecules simultaneously
• E.g. O2 and CO2 move in & out of rbc’s
![Page 12: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
Facilitated Diffusion
• Size or polarity prevents diffusion?
• Protein creates a channel or pore for passage– E.g. sugars, amino
acids, ions, & water
• Down concentration gradient (high conc. to low conc.)
• Passive transport– No energy required
![Page 13: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Active Transport
• Spends energy to push solutes against conc. gradient• Passive transport down a gradient is “as easy as falling
in a hole”• But, how do you climb back up/out?• Use the notches/cracks/crevices, but takes energy - ATP

Transport of LARGE molecules
• Exocytosis – transport out of cell– Vesicle (membrane package) fuses with
plasma membrane, opens, releases outside– E.g. salty tears from tear glands
![Page 15: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
• Endocytosis – reverse of exocytosis– bringing in macromolecules from outside of
plasma membrane– Pinching of membrane to form vesicle
![Page 16: Membranes Everything in life is variable –Chaotic Membranes organize the chaos of cellular metabolism –E.g. houses & stores with doors & gates –E.g. streets](https://reader035.vdocument.in/reader035/viewer/2022062421/56649e495503460f94b3cbb5/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
• Phagocytosis – cellular eating– Engulfs food molecules forming a vacuole, fuses with lysosomes
for digestion• E.g. Amoeba
• Pinocytosis – cellular drinking– Vesicles of non-specific liquid
• Receptor mediated endocytosis– Pit forms in plasma membrane that is lined with specific
receptors, pinches closed, releases molecules inside cytoplasm
