  1. MEMBRANE STRUCTURE AND TRAFFIC AP Biology

  2. Membrane Models General Features of the Plasma Membrane • A boundary that separates living cell from nonliving environment. • A control device for chemical traffic into and out of the cell. • Is selectively permeable. • Has a unique structure which determines its function and solubility characteristics. • Intimately involved in cell cell recognition. AP Biology

  3. Membrane Models A. Early Membrane Observations 1. Lipid and lipid soluble materials enter cells more rapidly than substances that are insoluble in lipids. • Deduction: Membranes are made of lipids. • Deduction: Fat-soluble substance move through the membrane by dissolving in it ("like dissolves like"). AP Biology

  4. Membrane Models A. Early Membrane Models 2. Evidence: Amphipathic phospholipids will form an artificial membrane on the surface of water with only the hydrophilic heads immersed in water • Amphipathic = Condition where a molecule has both a hydrophilic region and a hydrophobic region. • Deduction: Because of their molecular structure, phospholipids can form membranes. They form either layers or micelles. AP Biology

  7. Membrane Models A. Early Membrane Observation 3. Phospholipid content of membranes isolated from red blood cells is just enough to cover the cells with two layers. • Deduction: Cell membranes are actually phospholipid bilayers, two molecules thick. 4. Membranes isolated from red blood cells contain proteins as well as lipids. • There is protein in biological membranes. AP Biology

  8. Membrane Models B. The Davson-Danielli Model (1935) • Phospholipid bilayer sandwiched between two layers of globular protein. • Polar heads are oriented towards protein layers forming a hydrophilic zone. • Nonpolar tails are oriented in between polar heads forming a hydrophobic zone. AP Biology

  9. Membrane Models B. The Davson-Danielli Model • Not all membranes are identical or symmetrical. • Membranes with different functions also differ in chemical composition and structure. • Membranes are bifacial with distinct inside and outside faces. • A membrane with an outside layer of proteins would be an unstable structure. • Membrane proteins are not soluble in water, and, like phospholipid, they are amphipathic. • Protein layer not likely because its hydrophobic regions would be in an aqueous environment, and it would also separate the hydrophilic phospholipid heads from water. AP Biology

  10. Membrane Models C. The Singer-Nicolson Model (1972) AP Biology

  11. Membrane Models D. The Fluid Mosaic Model 1. Membranes are Fluid AP Biology

  12. Membrane Models D. The Fluid Mosaic Model • Membranes are Fluid • Membranes are Mosaics of Structure and Function AP Biology

  13. Membrane Models D. The Fluid Mosaic Model • Membranes are Fluid • Membranes are Mosaics of Structure and Function • Membranes are bifacial. AP Biology

  14. Membrane Models D. The Fluid Mosaic Model • Membranes are Fluid • Membranes are Mosaics of Structure and Function • Membranes are bifacial. • Membrane Carbohydrates recognize other cells. AP Biology

  15. Membrane Models D. The Fluid Mosaic Model 2. Membrane proteins drift more slowly than lipids. The fact that proteins drift laterally was established experimentally by fusing a human and mouse cell: • Membrane proteins of a human and mouse cell were labeled with different green and red fluorescent dyes. • Cells were fused to form a hybrid cell with a continuous membrane. • Hybrid cell membrane had initially distinct regions of green and red dye. • In less than an hour, the two colors were intermixed. AP Biology

  16. Membrane Models D.The Fluid Mosaic Model 3. Some membrane proteins are tethered to the cytoskeleton and cannot move far. 4. Membranes solidify if the temperature decreases to a critical point. Critical temperature is lower in membranes with a greater concentration of unsaturated phospholipids. AP Biology

  17. Membrane Models D. The Fluid Mosaic Model 5. Because they hinder close packing of phospholipids, the steroid cholesterol and unsaturated hydrocarbon tails (with kinks at the carbon-to-carbon double bonds) enhance membrane fluidity. 6. Membranes must be fluid to work properly. Solidification may result in permeability changes and enzyme deactivation. 7. Organisms adapt to cold temperatures by altering membrane lipid composition (e.g. winter wheat increases concentration of membrane unsaturated phospholipids and some hibernating animals enrich membranes with cholesterol).
