Campbell's Biology, 9e (Reece et al.) Chapter 7 Membrane Structure and Function Membranes and membrane transport are fundamental to cellular life. The concepts in this chapter require integration of concepts from previous chapters: the nature of water and hydrophobic versus hydrophilic molecules, the properties of lipid molecules and their role in regulating membrane fluidity, and the roles of proteins and carbohydrates in membrane function. The concepts of ion transport and electrochemical gradients across membranes are important foundations for the following chapters on energy metabolism. Finally, the bulk transport phenomena have important clinical significance in the immune system, during invasion by pathogens, and in cell signaling. Multiple-Choice Questions

The Cell Surface Membrane B io F actsheet September 1997 Number 8 1 The cell surface membrane (formerly called the plasma membrane) surrounds the cytoplasm of eukaryotic cells. The membrane forms a selectively permeable barrier, controlling the substances that enter and leave the cell and therefore enables the cell to regulate its internal environment. 2. Glycolipids - which make up 5% of membrane lipids. Glycolipids occur on the external surface of the cell surface membrane and the carbohydrate portion of the glycolipid extends into the intercellular space and is called a glycocalyx. These are important in cell-to-cell recognition. 3. Cholesterol - a steroid which makes up 20% of lipids in animal membranes but is rarely found in plant cell membranes.

CHAPTER 7 Membrane Structure and Function Overview: Life at the Edge The plasma membrane is the boundary that separates the living cell from its surroundings The plasma membrane exhibits selective permeability, allowing some substances to cross it more easily than others Concept 7.1: Cellular membranes are fluid mosaics of lipids and proteins Phospholipids are the most abundant lipid in the plasma membrane Phospholipids are amphipathic molecules, containing hydrophobic and hydrophilic regions The fluid mosaic model states that a membrane is a fluid structure with a ?mosaic? of various proteins embedded in it Membrane Models: Scientific Inquiry Membranes have been chemically analyzed and found to be made of proteins and lipids

LIPIDS & MEMBRANE STRUCTURE Lipids differ from the other macromolecules: not formed by linear polymerization however, they do have a high molecular weight they contribute to important cellular structures (membranes) What are they? Heterogeneous category of cellular components that are insoluble in water (hydrophobic) Lipids are typically rich in nonpolar hydrocarbon regions with relatively few polar groups Lipids have 3 main cellular functions: 1. Energy storage (fat to sugar) Lipids have about 6 times more energy than the same weight of a polysaccharide 2. Membrane structure 3. Transmission of chemical signals There are six main classes of lipids (FAMILIARIZE WITH THE FIRST 3) Fatty acids are the building blocks for several other kinds of lipids

Modified STUDY GUIDE for BIOL 121 for Chapters 5, 6, and 7 with many specific answers included. Spring 2011 Chapter 5 Figures to know: 1 -5, 8, 9, 11, 13, and 15. 5.1 Review phospholipids (p 41) and “phospholipid bilayer” membrane (p 58). Use fig 5.1 to describe how all cell membranes are described as a “fluid mosaic”. Fluid Mosaic: The phospholipids and proteins together are not a solid wall, but a very flexible structure. The word “mosaic” means that the proteins are interspersed among the phospholipid molecules. The phospholipids are by far the most abundant molecules in the membrane and form the “flexible barrier”. List and describe the 6 basic types of functions that membrane proteins have:
