assymetry
typical charge of the inside of the membrane
-60mV
the major membrane forming lipids
glycerophospholipids
sphingolipids
glycerophingolipids
cholesterol
most abundant lipid in membrane
glycerophospholipid/phosphoglyceride
the simplest glyceropphospholipid
phosphatidic acid
common glycerophospholipids in membrane
phosphatidylcholine
phosphatidylethanolamine
phosphatydilserine
phosphatidylinostiol
anong glycerophospholipids ung nsa lacholinebas
phosphatidylcholine
common sphingolipids in the membrane
ceramide
sphingosine
backbone ng sphinglipids
sphingsoine
the predominant sphingolipid in myelin sheath
sphingomyelin
structure ng ceramide
sphongosine na may fatty acid via amide bond
backbone ng glycosphingolipids
ceramide
glycosphingolipids are either
cerebroside or ganglioside
simplest glycosphinglipid
cerebroside
glucocerebro or galactocerebro which is found in non-neural tissue
glucocerebroside
this glycosphingolipid contains one or more N-acetylneuraminic acid or sialic acid units
ganglioside
ganglioside GM1 serves as a receptor that binds
cholera toxin, influenza virus, E. coli enterotoxin, etc
ganglioside GM2 accumulates in the tissues of infants with
Tay-Sach’s dse due to a deficiency in n.acetylneuraminic acidlp
most commons sterol in plasma membrane
cholesterol
function ng cholesterol sa membrane
immobilize of the first few hydrocarbons of the phospholipid para less deformable
prevents crystallization of the hydrocarbons
4 types of lipid anchoring motifs
amide-linked myristol
thioester-linked fatty acyl
hioester-linked prenyl
glycosyl phosphatidylinositol (GPI)
where are carb contents of membrane found?
outside
spherical structures that form bcoz of the amphipathic character of lipids
hydrophilic heads outside hydrophobic tails inside
micelles
concentration of lipid required for micelle formation
critical micelle formation
spherical vessel formed when a lipid bilayer closes in on itself to form separating the external environment from internal aqueous compartment
liposome
mobility of membrane lipids
rapid lateral diffusion
rapid rotational diffusion
very slow transverse flipflop exchange
rapid flexing of hydrocarbons chains
who proposed Fluid Mosaic model
Jonathan Singer and Garth Nicholson 1972
two roles of the lipid bilayer accdg to fluid mosaic model
sovent for intergral membrane proteins and permeability membrane
specialized structures in the membrane
lipid rafts
caveolae
tight junctions
microdomains composed of lipids and proteins in both the outer and inner layer, in cellular membranes, destined to itneract with plasma membrane
lipid raft
where are lipid rafts assembled in mammalians
golgi complex
ano nsa inner at outer leaflets ng lipid rafts
outer: glycosphingolipids and cholesterol
inner: phospholipids and cholesterol
resistant to detergent solubilization
lipid rafts
flask-shaped indentations of the cytosolic side of the cell formed from the lipid rafts
caveolae
ano ung nsa caveolae na responsible daw sa formation nito
caveolin-1
found on membrane surfaces that work to prevent the diffusion of macromolecules between cells
tight junctions
what influences the fluidity of the membrane
lipid composition and temp
shorter chain length _____ membrane fluidty and _____ transition temp
increases; reduces
the temp at which the membrane “melts” to adopt a semifluid crystalline state
transition temp
what happens at transition temp
membrane melts to adopt semifluid crystalline state
increasing degrees of unsaturation _______ membrane fluidity
increases
ethanolamine or choline which increases the Tm greater
ethanolamine
_____ does not change but broadens the fluidity range considerably
cholesterol
at normal body temp, the bilayer kis at ____
fluid state
_____ temp decreases fluidity
lower
