MEMBRANE STRUCTURE AND
FUNCTION�Membranes organize the chemical activities of cells
�Membranes are selectively permeable
–They control the flow of substances into and out of a cell
• Membranes can hold teams of enzymes that function in metabolism

Proteins make the membrane a mosaic of function
� Some membrane proteins form cell junctions
� Others transport substances across the membrane
� Many membrane proteins are enzymes
• Some proteins function as receptors for chemical messages from other cells
– The binding of a messenger to a receptor may trigger signal transduction

Diffusion
• One way cells maintain homeostasis is by controlling the movement of substances across their cell membrane.
• Cells must use energy to transport some substances across the cell membrane.
• Other substances move across the cell membrane without any use of energy by the cell.

Random Motion and Concentration
�Movement across the cell membrane that does not require energy from the cell is called passive transport.
�A difference in the concentration of a substance, such as the balls, across a space is called a concentration gradient.
� Equilibrium is a condition in which the concentration of a substance is equal throughout a space.

Movement of Substances
� The movement of a substance from an area of high concentration to an area of lower concentration caused by the random motion of particles of the substance is called diffusion.� Diffusion is a type of passive transport
�Many substances, such as molecules and ions dissolved in the cytoplasm and in the fluid outside cells, enter or leave cells by diffusing across the cell membrane.

Osmosis
• The diffusion of water through a selectively
permeable membrane is called osmosis.
• Like other forms of diffusion, osmosis involves
the movement of a substance—water—down
its concentration gradient (higher to lower)
• Osmosis is a type of passive transport.

Osmosis, continued
There are three possibilities for the direction of water movement:
• Water moves out. When water diffuses out of the cell, the cell
shrinks. A solution that causes a cell to shrink due to osmosis is a
hypertonic solution.
- MORE dissolved particles (less water) outside cell than in cytoplasm
• Water moves in. When water diffuses into the cell, the cell swells.
A solution that causes a cell to swell because of osmosis is called a
hypotonic solution.
- LESS dissolved particles (more water) outside cell than in cytoplasm
• No net water movement. A solution that produces no change in
cell volume because of osmosis is called an isotonic solution.- SAME amount of dissolved particles (& water) inside & outside cell

Crossing the Cell Membrane
Diffusion Through Ion Channels
�An ion channel is a transport protein with a polar pore through which ions can pass.
� The pore of an ion channel spans the thickness of the cell membrane.
�An ion that enters the pore can cross the cell membrane without contacting the nonpolar interior of the lipid bilayer.

Crossing the Cell Membrane
Electrical Charge and Ion Transport
� Inside of typical cell is negatively charged with respect to the outside of the cell.
� The movement of a charged particle, such as an ion, across the cell membrane is also influenced by the particle’s positive or negative electrical charge.
� A more positively charged ion located outside the cell is more likely to diffuse into the cell, where the charge is negative.
� A more negatively charged ion located inside the cell is more likely to diffuse out of the cell.

Crossing the Cell Membrane
Facilitated Diffusion
• Most cells also have a different kind of transport protein, called carrier proteins, that can bind to a specific substance on one side of the cell membrane, carry the substance across the cell membrane, and release it on the other side.
• When carrier proteins are used to transport specific substances—such as amino acids and sugars—down their concentration gradient (from high to low), that transport is called facilitated diffusion.

Movement Against a Concentration Gradient
• The transport of a substance across the cell
membrane against its concentration gradient (low
to high) is called active transport.
• Unlike passive transport, active transport requires
the cell to use energy because the substance is
being moved against its concentration gradient.
• Most often, the energy needed for active
transport is supplied directly or indirectly by ATP.

Sodium-Potassium Pump
• One of the most important membrane pumps in
animal cells is a carrier protein called the sodium-
potassium pump.
• Na+ mores concentrated outside cell; K+ more
concentrated inside cell
• In a complete cycle, the sodium-potassium pump
transports three sodium ions, Na+, out of a cell
and two potassium ions, K+, into the cell.

continuedSodium-Potassium Pump
The sodium-potassium pump has four steps:
1. Three sodium ions inside the cell bind to the sodium-potassium pump.
2. The pump changes shape, transporting the three sodium ions across the cell membrane and releasing them outside the cell.
3. Two potassium ions outside the cell bind to the pump.
4. The two potassium ions are transported across the cell membrane and are released inside the cell.

Importance of Na+/K+ Pump
• Prevents Na+ from accumulating in cell
– If it accumulated in cell, it would cause cell the
gain water causing cell to swell/burst
• Helps maintain concentration gradient of
Na+/K+ ions across cell membrane
– Cells use this gradient to help transport other
substances (glucose)

Movement in Vesicles
• Many substances, such as proteins and polysaccharides, are too large to be transported by carrier proteins. These substances are moved across the cell membrane by vesicles.
• The movement of a substance into a cell by a vesicle is called endocytosis.
• The movement of a substance by a vesicle to the outside of a cell is called exocytosis.

Membrane Receptor Proteins• Cells must also respond to important information
and filter out unimportant information.
• Cells can receive the messages carried by certain
signal molecules because the cell membrane
contains specialized proteins, called receptor
proteins, that bind these signal molecules.
• A receptor protein is a protein that binds to a
specific signal molecule, enabling the cell to
respond to the signal molecule.

Functions of Receptor Proteins
• Changes in Permeability – The binding of a signal molecule to the receptor protein causes an ion
channel to open, allowing specific ions to cross the cell membrane.

Connection: Kidney dialysis can be a lifesaver
• Kidney failure/impaired function can lead to death
from a buildup of solutes & toxins in the blood
• A dialysis machine compensates for kidney failure
– It functions like kidneys, but receives & return blood
from a person’s vein
– It removes wastes from the blood, using
selectivelypermeable membranes to allow only water &
desired solutes to pass out with the dialyzing solution
