Lecture 3 Cell cytoplasm Flashcards
What is the membrane made of?
Phospholipids
What is the membrane modeled after?
fluid mosaic
What are the 3 types of transport?
Simple diffusion , channel, carrier/transporter
How do vesicles form?
Ligands bind at high affinity to specific surface receptors, which then associate with specific cytoplasmic proteins, including clathrin and adaptor proteins, and aggregate in membrane regions to form coated pits. Clathrin facilitates invagination of the pits, and another -peripheral membrane protein, dynamin, forms constricting loops around the developing neck of the pit, which cause the region to pinch off as a coated vesicle
What are the functions of the endoplasmic reticulum?
Synthesis, transport, storage, detoxification
Cells that make few or no proteins for secretion have very little RER, is a _______
erythroblast
Cells that synthesize, segregate, and store various proteins in specific secretory granules is a ______.
eosinophilic leukocyte
Cells with extensive RER and a well-developed Golgi apparatus show few secretory granules is a ______.
plasma cell
Epithelial cells specialized for secretion have distinct polarity is an example of a ______
pancreatic anicar cell
the ______ is a devoid of ribosomes. Major role in phospholipid synthesis and the site of Steroid hormone synthesis (e.g. Adrenal gland). Glycogen metabolism.
SER
The ______ is a highly plastic, morphologically complex system of membrane vesicles and cisternae in which proteins and other molecules made in the RER undergo further modification
Golgi
When stained with H & E, the golgi is a ______
golgi ghost
In the image of a lysosome, what are the black structures?
acid phosphotase
Where are lysosomes located in each imagine?
Toluidine blue w/ acid phosphatase, green in fluorescence, larger electron-dense bodies in TEM
______ is a process in which the cell uses lysosomes to dispose of excess or nonfunctioning organelles or membranes
Autophagy
