EXAM 2 Osmosis And Membranes Flashcards
Ion channel
Created passageway that allows ions through
Uniporter
Membrane transport protein moves ion across in 1 direction
Symporter
Transport protein moved two or more different types of ions across membrane
Anti porter
Transmembrane protein transporting two or more different ions in opposite directions
Glycosylation
process of adding sugar chains (glycans) to proteins or lipids, which occurs on the outside surface of the cell membrane
Describe sugars added to glycosylate
The sugar chains are polar and perform new functions
Process of glycosylation
1) Insert protein into ER
2) Sugar chain added
3) Attach sugar
4) Glyco-protein stays in membrane
5) Ship: ER → Golgi → vesicle → joins cell membrane
