Micelle if C.S. of head > tail | Bilayer if C.S. of head < tail
32
Hard water
lots of Ca/Mg/Fe salts displace Na/K in detergent and form insoluble scum on water
33
Solution for hard water
detergents form soluble Ca/Fe/Mg salts but were biodegradable so add phosphate by chelating salts so no scum

61
Membrane Protein Functions
catalysis, bind specific ligands to receptor proteins, specific transport proteins
62
Unit hypothesis
gorter/grendel 1920 - proteins always on outside - membrane = static - showed in freeze fracture (can split), EM, sonication
63
Lipid assymetry
each half = different, add PL molecules from cytoplasmic face of existing membrane - transfer to make balanced
64
Phospholipid motions
lateral (remain on one side), rotational, transverse (flippase out to in - floppase opp.)
65
Lipid fluidity (UFA kinks)
viscosity of lipid bilayer = % UFA | - more = more fluid
66
Lipid rafts
specialized microdomains in external side of PM
67
what composes lipid rafts
mainly cholesterol, sphingolipids, also membrane proteins | - less fluid, tighter packed than more loose packed lipids surrounding
68
Integral proteins (intrinsic)
water soluble, structural/fxnal, embedded in HP tails, only removed by organic solvent/detergent
69
How does detergent remove integral protein
displaces int'n b/t HP tails and bilayer w/the HP tail of detergent - bind so have pseudomicelle @HP part, rest of protein = hydrophilic so whole thing = H2O sol.
70
Peripheral proteins (extrinsic)
water soluble, inside or outside of bilayer, electrostatic bonding (noncov.) to bilayer
71
How to remove peripheral proteins
change in pH (neutralizes protein), ionic strength (interfere/breaks up int'ns), add urea (new HB b/t protein/bilayer), chelators
72
Lipid anchors
can distinguish protein type w/esterase | - if cleaves and protein = sol. (extrinsic), no HP sequences b/t FA and membrane

Anchor proteins

74
Evidence of asymmetric distribution of mem. proteins

75
EA
small, easily transverse membrane | or use freeze fracture to show asymm.
76
IEA
ionic, only binds to proteins on outside - prove w/electrophoresis label to show where interact w/proteins
77
Membrane protein fluidity - experimental evidence
fuse human antigen cell w/mouse cells - o.g. on own side, eventually mix so proteins = mobile
78
Types of membrane protein movement
intrinsic can do lateral movement (can move over each other), no transverse extrinsic can do lateral movement too
79
Fluid mosaic model of membrane
singer/nicholson 1972 - mem. proteins can be on inside, outside, or both (transverse) - PL are fluid b/c UFA
80
Passive transport - simple diffusion
small molecules cross mem. - random motion - rate depends [g] of molecule - H to L - stops @ equil.
81
[g]
concentration gradient
82
Passive transport - facilitated diffusion
large/charged molecules, permease (protein facilitates transfer) - HB b/t H2O and -OH on Glc - free energy>0 when break HB, <0 when reform
83
Facilitated transport w/ vs w/out permease
1. sep. H2O and Glc (G>0), go through, when pass, new HB b/t Glc and H2O (G<0) 2. Glc gets rid of HB (G>0), HB b/t Glc and permease (G<0), reform HB H2O/Glc when pass
84
Transporter characteristics
specificity (match carrier to molecule type) saturability (if V no INC w/[transported molecule] then saturated diffusion proceeds down [g] H to L
85
Transporter types
uniport (1 mol. 1 port), simultaneous transport of >1 molecule, mobile carrier (enclose mol. and come out other side - uniport or multiple)
86
What protein carrier used for mobile carrier
permease/translocase/cyclic peptide
87
Synport vs Antiport
syn = same direction anti = going opposite directions (still facil., use [g])
88
Active transport
one molecules goes against [g] | primary, secondary, group translocation
89
Primary transport
use energy from ATP to drive movement of material against [g]/diffusion - ATPase has 2 alpha and 2 beta subunits
90
Secondary active transport
energy released from H to L used to transport 2nd substance low to high
91
Group translocation
free Glc moves depending on [g], if Glc phosphorylated to Glc-6-PO4(-2) can't leave b/t charged and no transporter to move it
92
All active transport show
saturation, specificity, and are subject to specific inhibitors
93
Ion channels
specific, go down [g], can be uniport or multiple
