MEMBRANE MODELS
1915: Scientists analyzed isolated red blood cell
membranes, found them made up of proteins and lipids
10 years later: E. Gorter and F. Grendel reasoned
membranes are made of a phospholipid bilayer
1935: Hugh Davson and James Danielli
proposed membrane was a “sandwich”
of proteins and phospholipid bilayer
with proteins on outside of phopholipids

FLUIDITY
1972- S.J. Singer and G. Nicolson propose membrane is a
“mosaic” of proteins and phospholipids that are constantly
moving and changing
More than just a barrier…
• Expanding our view of cell membrane
beyond just a phospholipid bilayer barrier
– phospholipids plus…
A membrane is a collage of different proteins
embedded in the fluid matrix of the lipid
bilayer
Membrane Proteins
• Proteins determine most of membrane’s specific
functions
– cell membrane & organelle membranes each have
unique collections of proteins
• Membrane proteins:
– peripheral proteins = loosely
bound to surface of membrane
– integral proteins = penetrate into
lipid bilayer, often completely
spanning the membrane =
transmembrane protein
Membrane Carbohydrates
• Attached to proteins (glycoproteins)
or lipids (glycolipids)
• Play a key role in cell-cell recognition
– ability of a cell to distinguish neighboring cells
from another
– important in organ &
tissue development
– basis for rejection of
foreign cells by
immune system

Membranes provide a variety of cell
functions
Molecules need to move across
membranes in cells
OUT
waste
ammonia
salts
CO2
H2O
products
IN
food
carbohydrates
sugars,
proteins
amino acids
lipids
salts, O2, H2O

Cell Membranes are made of
PHOSPHOLIPIDS & PROTEINS
Amphipathic –
Molecules with
both hydrophilic
and hydrophobic regions
phosphate
hydrophilic
lipid
hydrophobic
HYDROPHILIC/HYDROPHOBIC areas
determine positions of molecules in cell
membranes
hydrophobic amino acids
– stick in the lipid membrane
– anchors the protein
in membrane
hydrophilic amino acids
– stick out in the watery
fluid in or out of cell
Semi-permeable membrane
• Need to allow passage through the
membrane
• But need to control what gets in or out
– membrane needs to be semi-permeable
sugar
aa
lipid
H 2O
salt
NH3
So what makes a membrane semi permeable?
See a movie
PHOBIC TAILS in center determine
what can pass through
What molecules can get through directly?
Small non-polar molar molecules (O2 & CO2) and
hydrophobic molecules (fats & other lipids)
can slip directly through the phospholipid cell
membrane, but…
inside cell
NH3
lipid
O2
outside cell sugar aa
salt
H 2O
What about
other stuff?
Diffusion
• 2nd Law of Thermodynamics
governs biological systems
– Universe tends towards disorder
Animatioin from: http://www.biologycorner.com/resources/diffusion-animated.gif
• Diffusion
– movement from [higher]  [lower] concentration
Diffusion will also
happen across a
cell membrane as
long as there is a
difference in
concentration and
the membrane
will let the
molecule pass
through.
Example: DIFFUSION IN CELLS
http://facstaff.bloomu.edu/gdavis/links%20100.htm
O2 automatically moves from
HIGHER concentration (in lungs) to
LOWER concentration (in blood)
CO2 automatically moves from
HIGHER concentration (in blood)
to LOWER concentration (in lungs)
http://www.le.ac.uk/pa/teach/va/anatomy/case2/2_2.html
Diffusion of 2 solutes
• Each substance diffuses down its own
concentration gradient, independent of
concentration gradients of other
substances
What if cell needs to move a
AGAINST the
molecule _________
CONCENTRATION
GRADIENT?
_______________
(LOWER  HIGHER)
Cell example:
Want to put MORE glucose
into mitochondria when there is
already glucose in there
Image from: http://www.biologyclass.net/mitochondria.jpg
What if a cell needs to
LARGE or ______
POLAR
move _____
molecules
that can’t get
through the
membrane?
http://www.d.umn.edu/~sdowning/Membranes/membraneImages/jpegimages/diffusionmedium.jpg
What if cell needs to move
FAST
molecules really _______?
(can’t wait for it to diffuse)
Cell example:
Movement of
Na + & K+ ions
required to send
nerve signals

WAY to
Cells need a ____
HELP molecules across
____
cell membranes that
can’t go across by
_______
themselves
___________
Kidspiration by: Riedell
Facilitated diffusion
• Move from HIGH to LOW concentration with
aid of membrane transport proteins
– passive transport
– no energy needed
– facilitated = with help
Facilitated Diffusion

Carrier Proteins
Grab molecule,
undergo conformational
change, flip to other side
Channel Proteins
Create passageway for
substances to pass
through
May be gated or not:
open in response to
chemical or electrical
signals
Animation from: http://www2.uic.edu/~myilma1/ionchannel.gif
Gated channels
• open only in presence of stimulus (signal)
– stimulus usually different from transported
molecule
• ex: ion-gated channels
when neurotransmitters bind to a specific gated
channels on a neuron, these channels open
= allows Na+ ions to enter nerve cell
• ex: voltage-gated channels
change in electrical charge across nerve cell
membrane opens Na+ & K+ channels
Carriers and Channels are specific
inside cell
H2O
aa
sugar
NH3
salt
outside cell
. . . BUT STILL MOVES FROM [HIGHER] to [LOWER]
Active transport
Uses energy from ATP to move molecules
against concentration gradient
– Moves from [lower] → [higher]
– Uses protein pumps
OR
vesicles

PROTON PUMP
Moves Protons (H+)
across membrane
EXAMPLES:
- Creates acidic condition inside lysosomes
- Photosynthesis/respiration use H+ gradients to
generate ATP
See a movie
proton pump
Active transport
SODIUM-POTASSIUM PUMP
Sets up difference in charge across membranes
Pumps 3 Na+ out
and 2 K+ in
Makes cells
more + outside
more - inside
See a movie
about Na+ - K+ pump
Animation from: http://www.cat.cc.md.us/courses/bio141/lecguide/unit1/eustruct/images/sppump.gif
All cells have voltages across their membranes
= membrane potential
• Cytoplasm inside cell is more negative
than extracellular fluid outside
• TWO FORCES drive diffusion
• Concentration gradient
• Electrical force
• Ions move DOWN the
electrochemical gradient
Favors the passage of cations (+) into cells
MEMBRANE POTENTIAL created by
electrogenic pumps (proteins that generate
voltage by pumping ions)
PROTON PUMP
Main electrogenic pump in
plants, fungi, and bacteria
http://fig.cox.miami.edu/~cmallery/150/memb/electrogenic.jpg
Na+- K+ PUMP
Main electrogenic pump
in animal cells
Animation from: http://www.lionden.com/cell_animations.htm
Electrogenic pumps can be coupled to
actively transport other substances
= COTRANSPORT
Ex: Cells pump H+
out of cell then use
the diffusion of H+
back into cell down
its gradient to drive
the uptake of
sucrose into cells

Receptor-mediated Endocytosis
• Ligand-any molecule that binds to a receptor site
• Binding of ligands allows uptake of specific
molecules
Receptor-mediated Endocytosis
Example in cells: Cholesterol Uptake
Low density lipid proteins (LDL’s) bind cholesterol
and carry it in blood
LDL’s act as ligands binding
receptors on cell surface
and cholesterol is taken
into cell
http://academic.brooklyn.cuny.edu/biology/bio4fv/page/rectpr.htm
EXOCYTOSIS
• Active transport (requires ATP)
• Uses vesicles
• Releases substances to outside

Transport summary
The Special Case of Water
Movement of water across
the cell membrane =
OSMOSIS
Osmosis is diffusion of water
• Water is very important, so we talk about
water separately
• Diffusion of water from high concentration
of water to low concentration of water
– across a
semi-permeable
membrane
– Passive
– Uses no energy
Aquaporins
1991 | 2003
• Transport proteins that move water rapidly
into & out of cells
– evidence that there were water channels
Peter Agre
Roderick MacKinnon
John Hopkins
Rockefeller
TONICITY- ability of a solution to cause
a cell to lose or gain water
• Refers to the concentration of SOLUTES
• Is a RELATIVE term, comparing two
different solutions
Solute-substance that is dissolved
Solvent- substance solute in dissolved in
Solution = solute + solvent
What if there is a difference in
concentration but solute
molecules can’t move across a
membrane?
WATER will move
until concentrations
reach equilibrium

Concentration of water
• Direction of osmosis is determined by
comparing total solute concentrations
– Hypertonic - more solute, less water
– Hypotonic - less solute, more water
– Isotonic - equal solute, equal water
water
hypotonic
hypertonic
net movement of water
Solute concentration
Lower outside
than inside
Equal outside
and inside
Greater outside
than inside
HYPOTONIC
ISOTONIC
HYPERTONIC
What will happen to an animal cell
placed in different solutions?

Remember:
Cells try to “maintain stable
internal conditions =
HOMEOSTASIS
____________________
http://bioweb.wku.edu/courses/biol121/Osmosis/Osmosis.asp
So an animal cell in
ISOTONIC conditions
stays same size
Water entering = water leaving

Plant cells
Cell wall keeps
plant cell from bursting
= PLASMOLYSIS
Managing water balance
• Isotonic
– animal cell immersed in isotonic
solution
• blood cells in blood
• no net movement of water across
plasma membrane
• water flows across membrane, at
same rate in both directions
• volume of cell is stable
Osmosis…
.05 M
.03 M
Cell (compared to beaker)  hypertonic or hypotonic
Beaker (compared to cell)  hypertonic or hypotonic
Which way does the water flow?  in or out of cell
http://www.biology4kids.com/files/cell_vacuole.html
Loss of water from central vacuole= plants “wilt”
Vacuole full of water gives plant support
(turgor pressure)
Turgid = very firm
Flaccid = limp
HYPOTONIC
Sitting in the bathtub
makes your fingers
plump up and get “pruny”
Grocery stores spray
water on their veggies
to “plump them up”
If cells can’t maintain
“stable internal conditions” . . .
damage can result and cells can die.

Cell survival depends on balancing water
uptake & loss = OSMOREGULATION
