Integral proteins of membrane and 5 types |
|
Definition
Integral proteins are firmly inserted into lipid bilayer 1. Transport 2. Receptors 3. Structural 4. Enzymes 5. Cell: cell recognition (glycocalyx) |
|
|
Term
Transport protein (what type of membrane protein and function) |
|
Definition
Integral protein -Carriers and pores -Move stuff through bilayer |
|
|
Term
Receptor proteins (what type of membrane protein and function) |
|
Definition
Integral Protein -External, signal transduction -Chemical messenger attaches to receptor and causes a change in shape which initiates a chemical reaction in cell. |
|
|
Term
Structural (what type of membrane protein and function) |
|
Definition
Integral protein -cell movement, bind cells together, keep shape |
|
|
Term
Enzymatic proteins (what type of membrane protein and function) |
|
Definition
Integral Protein -enzyme built into membrane -catalyzes metabolic pathway |
|
|
Term
Cell-cell recognition proteins (what type of membrane protein and function) |
|
Definition
Integral protein -recognize other cells -(glycoproteins)have idetification tags recognized by other cells |
|
|
Term
Peripheral Proteins and function |
|
Definition
on membrane of cell attached loosely to integral proteins -easily removed -Enzymes, motor proteins (cell shape), cell to cell lings, provide support on intracellular surface |
|
|
Term
3 factors that act to bind cells together |
|
Definition
1. Glycoproteins in glycocalyx act as an adhesive 2. Wavy contours of the membranes of adjacent cells fit together in a tongue and groove fashion 3. Special membrane junctions are formed |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A series of integral protein molecules in plasma membranes of adjacent cells fuse together that make an impermeable junction (no molecules can pass through intercellular space) :in digestive tract |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Anchoring junctions: a mechanical coupling scattered like rivets along the sides of abutting cells that prevent their seperation -Plaque (buttonlike thikening) are connected by linker protein filaments -Reduce tension (in skin and heart) |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Communicating junctions allow ions and small molecules to pass from one cell to the next for intercellular communication -Transmembrane proteins form pores to allow molecules to pass -in electrically excitable tissues (heart and smooth muscle) |
|
|
Term
Two types of channels in facilitated diffusion |
|
Definition
1. leakage channels, always open 2. Gated channels, need a signal to open |
|
|
Term
Name of water channels in plasma membrane |
|
Definition
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The ability of a solution to change the shape or tone of cells by altering their internal water volume |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
the tendency of water to move into the cell by osmosis |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
The back pressure exerted by water against the membrane |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A solution with the same solute concentration as that of the cytosol |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A solution having greater solute concentration than that of the cytosol. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
A solution having lesser solute concentration than that of the cytosol. |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
ATP-ADP gives energy for it. -Calcium and hdrogen pumps -Sodium-potassium pump (enzyme is Na+-K+ ATPase) -Sodium outside, Potassium inside, they switch over in transport |
|
|
Term
Secondary active transport |
|
Definition
-Contransport (moves more than one substance at a time -Symport system: 2 substances same direction -Example: Na+ moves with glucose into the cell, Na+ can then be used for Primary AT - Antiport system: 2 substances opposite directions |
|
|
Term
Vesicular Transport (3 types) |
|
Definition
Transport of large particles, macromolecules, and fluids across plasma membranes -Requires cellular energy (ATP) -Exocytosis transport out of cell -Endocytosis transport into cell -Transcytosis transport into, across, and then out of cell (Protein coated vesicle goes in, loses protein coat to out of cell, combines with a sorting vesicle, membrane parts go out of cell in transport vesicle, then eaten by lysosome or contents go out the other side of the cell |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Pseudopods engulf solids and bring them into cell's interior, it combines with a lysosome and then is digested. the extra parts leave the cell by Exocytosis |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Plasma membrane infolds, bringing extracellular fluid and solutes into interior of the cell |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
1. Membrane bound vesicle moves to Plasma membrane 2. Vesicle and P.M. fuse and a pore pops oben 3. v-SNAREs and t-SNAREs (proteins) bind 4. Vesicle contents are released Examples: Hormone and mucus secretion, neurotransmitter release, ejection of wastes |
|
|
Term
Resting Membrane Potential |
|
Definition
Voltage measured in resting state of cells -50 to -100mV -K is leaked making cell neg, but it comes back in because it is attracted to the neg |
|
|
Term
|
Definition
Fingerlike extensions of plasma membrane -increase surface area for absorption and makes it easier -core made of actin filaments for stiffening |
|
|
Term
