The Cell Membrane AP Biology 2007 -2008
Cell membrane defines cell § Cell membrane separates living cell from aqueous environment u thin barrier = 8 nm thick § Controls traffic in & out of the cell u allows some substances to cross more easily than others § hydrophobic (nonpolar) vs. hydrophilic (polar) AP Biology
I. Cell Membrane A. General 1. Flexible and allows a unicellular organism to move AP Biology
B. Function 1. Maintain a high concentration of materials in the cell. 2. Keep harmful materials out. 3. Control the movement of materials into and out of the cell. 4. Let the cell sense its environment. AP Biology
5. Protective barrier 6. Regulate transport in & out of cell (selectively permeable) 7. Allow cell recognition 8. Provide anchoring sites for filaments of cytoskeleton AP Biology
C. Maintains homeostasis 1. Balanced internal condition of cells. Also called equilibrium 2. Maintained by plasma membrane controlling what enters & leaves the cell. AP Biology
D. Structure of the Cell Membrane AP Biology *
§ Vocabulary development: § - Semi-permeable membrane = is selective about the substance that can pass through a porous barrier or membrane. AP Biology
FLUID MOSAIC MODEL 1. FLUID- because individual phospholipids and proteins can move around freely within the layer, like it’s a liquid. 2. MOSAIC- because of the pattern produced by the scattered protein molecules when the membrane is viewed from above. AP Biology
Lipids § Function: u energy storage § very concentrated § twice the energy as carbohydrates! cell membrane u cushions organs u insulates body u § think whale blubber! AP Biology 2003 -2004
B. Lipids (Fats) 1. Fats, oils, waxes, steroids 2. Chiefly function in energy storage, protection, and insulation 3. Contain carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen but the H: O is not in a 2: 1 ratio 4. Tend to be large molecules -- an example of a neutral lipid is below AP Biology
Structure of Fat not a chain (polymer) = just a “big fat molecule” AP Biology 2003 -2004
AP Biology
5. Neutral lipids are formed from the union of one glycerol molecule and 3 fatty acids 6. 3 fatty acids + glycerol ----> neutral fat (lipid) 7. Fats -- found chiefly in animals 8. Oils and waxes -- found chiefly in plants 9. Oils are liquid at room temperature, waxes are solids 10. Lipids along with proteins are key components AP Biology
Saturated vs. unsaturated AP Biology 2003 -2004
Other lipids in biology § Cell membranes are made out of lipids phospholipids u heads are on the outside touching water u § “like” water u tails are on inside away from water § “scared” of water u AP Biology forms a barrier between the cell & the outside 2003 -2004
Cell membrane AP Biology
Phospholipids § Phosphate head u “attracted to water” hydrophilic § Fatty acid tails u Phosphate hydrophobic § Arranged as a bilayer Fatty acid “repelled by water” Aaaah, one of those structure–function examples AP Biology
Arranged as a Phospholipid bilayer § Serves as a cellular barrier / border sugar polar hydrophilic heads nonpolar hydrophobic tails H 2 O salt impermeable to polar molecules polar hydrophilic heads waste AP Biology lipids
Cell Membrane Hydrophobic The cell membrane is made of 2 layers of molecules pass phospholipids called the easily; hydrophillic lipid bilayer DO NOT AP Biology
AP Biology
Cell membrane is more than lipids… § Transmembrane proteins embedded in phospholipid bilayer u create semi-permeabe channels lipid bilayer membrane AP Biology protein channels in lipid bilyer membrane
Why are proteins the perfect molecule to build structures in the cell membrane? AP Biology 2007 -2008
H+ H+ Examples Retinal chromophore NH 2 aquaporin = water channel in bacteria Porin monomer H 2 O b-pleated sheets Bacterial outer membrane Nonpolar (hydrophobic) a-helices in the cell membrane COOH H+ H + Cytoplasm proton pump channel in photosynthetic bacteria H O AP Biology 2 function through conformational change = protein changes shape

Many Functions of Membrane Proteins “Channel” Outside Plasma membrane Inside Transporter Enzyme activity Cell surface receptor Cell adhesion Attachment to the cytoskeleton “Antigen” AP Biology Cell surface identity marker
Membrane Proteins § Proteins determine membrane’s specific functions u cell membrane & organelle membranes each have unique collections of proteins § Classes of membrane proteins: u peripheral proteins § loosely bound to surface of membrane § ex: cell surface identity marker (antigens) u integral proteins § penetrate lipid bilayer, usually across whole membrane § transmembrane protein § ex: transport proteins w channels, permeases (pumps) AP Biology
Cell membrane must be more than lipids… § In 1972, S. J. Singer & G. Nicolson proposed that membrane proteins are inserted into the phospholipid bilayer It’s like a fluid… It’s like a mosaic… It’s the Fluid Mosaic Model! AP Biology
Membrane is a collage of proteins & other molecules embedded in the fluid matrix of the lipid bilayer Glycoprotein Extracellular fluid Glycolipid Phospholipids Cholesterol Peripheral protein AP Biology Cytoplasm Transmembrane proteins Filaments of cytoskeleton 1972, S. J. Singer & G. Nicolson proposed Fluid Mosaic Model
Membrane carbohydrates § Play a key role in cell-cell recognition u ability of a cell to distinguish one cell from another § antigens important in organ & tissue development u basis for rejection of foreign cells by immune system u AP Biology

TRANSPORT § - Passive transport § Energy…NO § - Active transport § Energy…YES AP Biology
TRANSPORT across membrane § - Passive transport = is the ability of a § substance to travel from an area of high concentration (quantity) of that substance to an area of low concentration of that substance without applying energy. - Active transport = is the ability of a substance to travel from an area of low concentration (quantity) of that substance to an area of high concentration of that substance with applying energy. AP Biology
§ - Gradient = is the difference in measurement of § two different ends or side of a parameter. - Equilibrium = is when the situation is stabled or evenly balanced. It can be when there is no concentration gradient. AP Biology
