Metabolism Of RBC Flashcards
Rbc contain how many percent pf solid
35%
The chief protein of the red cell
Hb
Other protein are present in combination with
Lipids and oligosaccharide chains
These are higher in red cell than plasma
Potassium, magnesium and zinc concentration
Ihow many percent is protein
50%
How many percent is fat
40%
How many percent is carbohydrate
10%
Which determine the membrane fluidity
Lipid bilayer
Which is responsible for flexibility that are either peripheral or integral penetrating the lipid bilayer
Proteins
This occurs only on the external surface
Carbohydrate
Rbc membrane is mainly what
Phospholipids
Is a semi permeable lipid bi layer supported by a protein meshlike cytoskeleton structure
Rbc mem
Extend to the surface and span the entire membrane to the inner cytoplasmic side of rbc
Integral proteins
Limited to the cytoplasmic surface pf the membrane forming the red cell cytoskeleton
Peripheral skeleton
What are cytoskeletal protein
Actin band 5 Ankyrin band 2.1 Band 4.1 and 4.2 Adducin Spectrin
Two important characteristics pf rbc
Deformability and permeability
Energy is generated exclusively by what
Glycolysis
This generates about 90% of the atp needed by the rbc
Anaerobic glycolytic pathway
These are not true cell
Rbc
The rbc is freely permable to
water and anions
This can transverse the membrane in less than a second
Chloride and bicarbonate
Rbc membrane is relatively impermeable to catinos such as
Sodium and potassium
Erythrocyte intra to extracellular ratios for sodium and potassium are
1:12 and 25:1
When rbc are depleted. These electrolytes are allowed to accumulate intracellulary. And what electrolytes are lost
Calcium and sodium/potassium and water
