Plasma Membrane Structure and Function
Fluid Mosaic Modelof Membrane Structure Oligosaccharides PhospholipidBilayer Membrane Proteins OuterSurface Cholesterol Cytoplasm
Macromolecules found in Membranes • Lipids • Phospholipid bilayer • Cholesterol • Proteins • Transport proteins • Receptor proteins • Recognition proteins • Carbohydrates • Oligosaccharides on glycoproteins
Polar group Glycerol Fatty Acid Fatty Acid Fatty Acid Fatty Acid Fatty Acid Phospholipid Structure Change from Triglyceride to Phospholipid Glycerol
The plasma membrane “fluid” is a double layer of phospholipids.
Functions of Membrane Macromolecules • Lipids • Phospholipid bilayer • Forms boundary to isolate cell contents from environment • Restricts passage of hydrophilic substances across the membrane • Cholesterol • Increases bilayer strength, flexibility • Reduces membrane fluidity • Reduces permeability to water-soluble substances
Functions of Membrane Macromolecules • Proteins • Transport proteins • Regulate movement of water soluble substances • Channel proteins have pores that allow passage of ions and small water-soluble molecules • Carrier proteins bind to molecules and change shape for delivery across membrane
Functions of Membrane Macromolecules • Proteins • Receptor proteins • Docking site for molecules outside the cell • Trigger internal cellular response • Recognition proteins • Identification tags • Oligosaccharides aid in cell-cell recognition • Cell-surface attachment sites
Which component would have an oligosaccharide attached? Which component regulates membrane fluidity? Which component assists in movement of water-soluble substances across the membrane? Cholesterol Receptor Protein Phospholipid Bilayer Transport Protein Recognition Protein Applying Your Knowledge
Movement of substances across the cell membrane Passive transport Substances move from [high][low] No energy input required Simple Diffusion, Facilitated Diffusion, Osmosis Active transport Substances move from [low][high] Requires energy input Protein carriers, Endocytosis, Exocytosis Transport Processes
Diffusion of Dye in Water RandomDispersal Dispersing Time 0 Time 1 Time 2 SteepConcentrationGradient ReducedConcentrationGradient NoConcentrationGradient
Simple Diffusion (extracellular fluid) Now known to require transport proteins called aquaporins Some moleculesdiffuse freelyacross (cytoplasm) (lipid soluble molecules, CO2, O2, H2O )

Endocytosis • Active process for movement of large molecules and organisms • Substance is taken in by vesicle formed from cell membrane • Phagocytosis: solid substance in vesicle • Pinocytosis: liquid droplets in vesicle • Receptor-Mediated Endocytosis: incoming substance binds to receptor
