The Working Cell Turning on the Lights to Be Invisible Take place in cell organelles Light producing cells Enzymes embedded in membranes of the organelle Control the reaction Enzymes: How they Function Membranes: Structure and Function Transport: Through Membranes Energy is the capacity to perform work 5.10 All organisms require energy It is the CURRENCY of LIFE Cellular Metabolism 5-12 ◦ Sum of endo and exergonic reactions carried out by every working cell in every organism Endergonic reaction◦ Requires net input of energy Exergonic reaction◦ Chemical rxn that release energy 5.13 ATP shuttles chemical energy and drives cellular work ATP- Adenosine Triphosphate ATP powers nearly all forms of cellular work The energy in an ATP molecule is in the bonds between its phosphate groups ATP is the pocketbook!

Carbohydrate of glycoprotein Glycoprotein Glycolipid Integrin Phospholipid fluid mosaic Microfilaments of cytoskeleton Cholesterol ◦ The plasma membrane of the cell is selectively permeable Controlling the flow of substances into or out of the cell TEM 200,000 Outside of cell Cytoplasm Figure 5.10 5.1 Membrane phospholipids form a bilayer ◦ Phospholipids: ◦ 1 phosphate group and 2 fatty acids Have a hydrophilic head and two hydrophobic tails Are the main structural components of membranes ◦ Phospholipids form a two-layer sheet phospholipid bilayer, with the heads facing outward and the tails facing inward Figure 5.11A Hydrophilic head Phosphate group CH3 + N CH2 CH3 CH3 CH2 O O– P O O CH CH2 O C CH2 O O C O CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 Symbol CH CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH2 CH3 CH3 Hydrophobic tails Hydrophilic heads Water Hydrophobic tails Hydrophilic heads Figure 5.11B Water Phospholipid bilayer Hydrophobic regions of protein Hydrophilic regions of protein 1.

Transport Phospholipids, the key component of biological membranes, naturally assemble into simple membranes – Formation of a membrane that encloses collections of molecules necessary for life was a critical step in evolution – Can be demonstrated in vitro – Allows cells to regulate chemical exchanges with the environment – Basic requirement for life Copyright © 2009 Pearson Education, Inc. Water-filled bubble made of phospholipids 5.3 Passive transport is diffusion across a membrane Diffusion- the tendency for particles of any kind to spread out evenly in an available space, moving from where they are more concentrated to regions where they are less concentrated Concentration Gradient: High Concentration Low Concentration Travel down concentration gradient until equilibrium is obtained Multiple substances diffuse independently Molecules of dye Membrane Equilibrium Equilibrium ◦ In passive transport- substances diffuse through membranes without work by the cell ◦ Ex) O2 and Co2 move in and out of our red blood cells in our lung ◦ Small, nonpolar molecules such as O2 and CO2 diffuse easily across the phospholipid bilayer ◦ What about large molecules, ions or polar molecules? Still passive transport- no energy required: 1. Transport protein provides a pore for solute to pass 2. Transport protein binds to solute, changes shape and releases it on the other side Solute examples: Sugars, amino acids, ions and water Transport proteins may facilitate diffusion across membranes ◦ Many kinds of molecules do not diffuse freely across membranes ◦ Charge, size, polarity ◦ transport proteins Provide passage across membranes through a process called facilitated diffusion Still passive transport- no energy required transport protein provides a pore for solute to pass Figure 5.15 Solute Molecule Transport Protein 5.4 Osmosis is the diffusion of water across a membrane ◦ In osmosis Water travels from a solution of lower solute concentration to one of higher solute concentration Water is used to “balance out” different solute concentrations to equilibrium “waters down” the side with “too much” solute Lower concentration of solute Higher concentration of solute Equal concentration of solute Solute molecule H2O Selectively permeable membrane Water molecule Solute molecule with cluster of water molecules Net flow of water 5.5 Water balance osmoregulation- the control of water balance Isotonic- solution = in solute concentration to the cell Hypotonic - solution with solute concentration lower than the cell Hypertonic- solution with solute concentration greater than the cell Osmosis causes cells to: shrink in hypertonic solutions swell in hypotonic solutions Isotonic solution H2O Hypotonic solution Hypertonic solution H2O H2O H2O Animal cell (1) Normal H2O H2O (2) Lysed H2O (3) Shriveled Plasma membrane H2O Plant cell (4) Flaccid (5) Turgid (6) Shriveled (plasmolyzed) 5.8 Cells expend energy for active transport ◦ Transport proteins can move solutes against a concentration gradient ◦ To the side with the most solute ◦ Through active transport, which requires ATP ◦ Cell work is not ALWAYS about balance ◦ Ex) The cell needs more K+ and less Na+ than its’ external environment (Na+/K+ PUMP) to generate nerve signals Transport protein P ATP Solute 1 Solute binding P ADP 2 Phosphorylation Protein changes shape Phosphate detaches 3 4 Transport P Protein reversion 5.9 Exocytosis and endocytosis transport large molecules ◦ To move large molecules or particles through a membrane ◦ Exocytosis ◦ A vesicle may fuse with the membrane and expel its contents ◦ Endocytosis ◦ Membranes may fold inward enclosing material from the outside Vesicle Protein Vesicle forming Figure 5.19B
