Q

Phospholipids

A

membranes are variously composed of these special lipids, they are amphipathic molecules with a hydrophobic and phillic end can assemble as micelle, bi-layer and liposome

Q

Kinds of membrane proteins

A

structural - give cell structural integrity, ECMchannels - allow for passive transport of molecule through membranetransporters - active transport of molecule along natural conc gradientpumps - active transport of molecule against concentration gradienttransducers - couple a membrane receptor to cytoplasmic enzymeenzymes - perform cellular work by catalyzing rxn

Q

Cholesterol

A

added agent involved in cell fluidity, amphipathis steroid, enhances cell membrane stability decreases permeability, helps with packing the phospholipids.

Q

Fluis Mosaic Model

A

protein and lipid distribution is assymetrical, membrane must be able to engage in recognition, transportation and communication.

Q

cellular adhesion during growth and development

A

by cellular density/contact with cell beside it, the part that is recognizable is the stage-specific embryonic antigens (SSEA’s)

17
Q

cell junctions

A

adhering or tight junctions by ways of proteins

18
Q

cellular interactions with prokaryotic cells

A

certain bacteria have tiny protein threads, fimbri, to attack the host cell

19
Q

cellular binding during diapedesis

A

ability of WBC to bond to, and exit capillary lining linked to the display and interaction of special surface recognition molecules

20
Q

cellular/tissue identity

A

by what carbohydrates are attached can define the type of cells they are “blood typing”

21
Q

cellular immunity

A

cells immune systems express certain proteins on plasma membrane call human leukocyte antigens (HLA), these are used to present foreign material to other defender cells

22
Q

antigen presenting cells

A

HLA cell that put foreign material on outside of membrane for other defender cells to see and attack
