3 classses of membrane proteins
- Pumps
- Carriers
- Channels
What class of membrane protein is stated below:
▪️ACTIVE Transport
▪️Uses energy (ATP hydrolysis)
▪️Drive UPHILL
▪️Ex: Na+-K+ATPase Pump
Pumps
What class of membrane protein is stated below:
▪️PASSIVE Transport
▪️Provide a membrane pore to which ions can flow very rapidly in a DONWHILL direction
Channels
What class of membrane protein is stated below:
▪️Both ACTIVE & PASSIVE Transport
▪️Active: Active Transport
▪️Passive Facilitated Diffusion
▪️Saturable
Carriers
In Cholesterol
▪️At HIGH temperature, fluidity (?)
HIGH temp. Fluidity DECREASES
In Cholesterol
▪️At LOW temp, fluidity (?)
LOW temp. Fluidity INCREASES
Cell Membrane should maintain at temperature
37°C
Under Temperature
HIGH temp: CM is
HIGH temp: CM is FLUID
Under Temperature
LOW temp: CM is
LOW temp: CM is rigid
LOW Temp. =
(LFR)
F -> R
HIGH Temp. =
(HRF)
R -> F
Fatty Acid exist as
▪️ordered, rigid state - (?)
ordered, rigid state - SATURATED
Fatty Acid exist as
▪️disordered, fluid state - (?)
disordered, fluid state - UNSATURATED
