Module 3 pt. 2 Flashcards
Cell membrane, which controls flow of METABOLITES is made up of(2)
Lipoprotein
Carbohydrates
P.S: Sterols absent
Cell membrane percentage of components (2)
40% phospholipid
60% protein
Cell membrane is represented by ?
Fluid-mosaic model
Components of Archaeal phospholipid vs Eukaryotic or bacterial phospholipid (3 each)
Archaeal
Branched isoprene chains
Ether linkage
L-glycerol
Eukaryotic
Unbranched fatty acids
Ester linkage
D-glycerol (different chirality, stereoisomers)
Branched isoprene chains can form what? They in turn produce what?
Lipid monolayer - stabilizes the membrane at high temperatures
Hopanoids
Types of cell membrane proteins (5)
Channel (Hotdog)
Carrier (Two droppers)
Recognition (Oval with bedhead)
Receptor (T)
Enzymatic (Separating)
*permeability barrier
* regulate movement of materials into and out of cell
* contains proteins that transport nutrients into the cells and eliminate waste materials
* synthesizes cell wall components
* assist with DNA replication (anchors DNA)
* secretes proteins
* carries on cell respiration (ATP synthesis)
* contains bases of flagella
* proteins respond to chemical substances in the environment
Prokaryotic Cell membrane
In prokaryotic cell membrane simple diffusion is possible. Small molecules like water, oxygen, carbion dioxide, and hydrophobic molecules can move freely
large molecules, like proteins, sugars, and ions can not (Specific membrane proteins)
Selectively permeable
Passive transport (2)
Active transport (1)
Diffusion
% Facilitated diffusion
Use of ATP
Cytoplasm ratio of its components (2)
4/5 Water
1/5 Dissolved substances (enzymes, proteins, carbs, lipids, salts, vitamins, inorganic ions)
Chemical reactions take place here
Colloidal system of variety of solutes in a watery solutions
No ER and mitochondria
Has mesosomes, inclusions, and vacuoles
Cytoplasm
Prominent in GM+ bacteria
Vesicular, invaginations in plasma membrane which are PRINCIPAL SITES of RESPIRATORY ENZYMES, cellular respiration
The Mitochondria of Eukaryotes but for prokaryotes
Formed by extensions of the cell membrane into the cell
Increases surface area of cell membrane to increase enzymatic content of the cell
Mesosomes
Gel-like region containing the chromosomes and plasmids. It is the chromosome region of a prokaryote
Nucleoid
Single, circular, or double-stranded DNA molecule that contains all the genetic information
1 mm long
10% of cell’s total volume (it is supercoiled)
Bacteria or archael appears circular, Eukaryal is not bcus squiggly
Chromosomes
Stages of E coli chromosome (3)
Circular
Folded - 40 to 50 loops
Supercoiled
