Lecture 3 Flashcards
main types of transport?
- simple diffusion: no ATP used
- facilitated diffusion/ passive transport:
- transported by protein or channel
- moves down gradient (noATP)
- 2 types: channel and carrier mediated - Active transport
- needs energy to move solutes against conc gradient
- 3 types: simple transport, gorup translocation, ABC transporter
what are the types of active transport?
- simple transport: uses pmf
- group translocation:
- uses phosphoenolpyruvate to drive chemical modifications of transported substance
- net effect = phosphorylation of glucose (glucose becomes glucose-6-phosphate) = glucose conformation changes = glucose can’t go out anymore - ABC transporter:
- ATP binding cassette
- uses ATP
- 3 components: membrane spanning protein, substrate specific binding protein, ATP hydrolyzing protein
2 types of passive transport/facilitated diffusion?
channel mediated
- for very small substances
- low specificity
carrier mediated
- more specific
- will block the pore
- substrate binds on one side of membrane –> carrier conformation shifts –> gate closes on one side but opens on the other
another name for passive transport?
facilitated diffusion
types of transport events?
- uniporter:
- antiporter: different directions
- symporter: both moves in same direction
when is pmf generated?
generates when a terminal electron acceptor is present (when respiration occurs)
not generated when respiration is not possible = ATPase is reversed to pump protons out of the cell
when is pmf generated?
generates when a terminal electron acceptor is present (when respiration occurs)
not generated when respiration is not possible = ATPase is reversed to pump protons out of the cell
what are the 2 forces of pmf?
- pH (conc of H+)
2. membrane potential
what is group translocation?
where substrate is modified as it passes through transporter across the membrane
how many protons does P-type ATPase produce per ATP? F-type?
P-type: produces 1 proton per ATP hydrolyzed (eukaryotes)
F-type: produces 3 protons per ATP hydrolyzed (prokaryotes)
3 types of endocytosis?
- phagocytosis: larger solid particles
- pinocytosis
- receptor mediated endocytosis:
what are essential for endocytosis?
actin filaments - they modify the membrane and the vesicle
what is oxidation? reduction?
oxidation: removal of electrons
reduction: addition of electrons
what are the 3 basic catabolic pathways?
- glycolytic pathway
- pentose phosphate pathway
- TCA
describe redox couples
electron donor is energy source
electron carrier provides reducing power (NAD or NADH)
