FLUID MOSAIC MODEL

FLUID MOSAIC MODEL
Model describing structure of the cell membrane
Model says cell membrane is not solid, fluid.
Has the consistency of olive oil
3
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
4
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
Protective barrier - contains cytoplasm (contents of the cell)
5
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
Regulates movement of substances in / out of cell (selectively permeable)
Transport
6
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
Allows cells to identify surrounding cells
Cell recognition

7
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
Cellular Attachment Cell membranes have junctions – surfaces which interlock keeps cells together – and surfaces which attach them to the extra cellular matrix.
8
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
Signal Transductionconverts a mechanical/chemical stimulus to a cell into a specific cellular response.
9
FUNCTIONS OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
Enzyme ActivityCells rely on thousands of different enzymes to catalyze metabolic reactions, many of these occur at the cell membrane.

STRUCTURE OF PLASMA MEMBRANE
11
MEMBRANE COMPONENTS
Proteins (intergral & peripheral)Carbohydrates (glucose)
PhospholipidsCholesterol
12
PHOSPHOLIPIDS
Make up 30-70% of the cell membrane
Phospholipids are like triglycerides with a phosphate
Come together to make a fluid membrane
13
PHOSPHOLIPID ORIENTATION
In water, phospholipids form a bilayer
A cell membrane is a bilayer
14
PHOSPHOLIPID ORIENTATION
Liposome is a small vesicle, with an aqueous compartment surrounded by a bilayer
15
PHOSPHOLIPID ORIENTATION
PHOSPHATE HEADS – are water loving and point toward water
FATTY ACID TAILS – are water fearing and orient themselves to each other
16
17
PHOSPHATE HEAD – HYDROPHYLIC
FATTY ACID TAILS – HYDROPHOBIC

PROTEINS
20
INTEGRAL PROTEINS
Proteins surrounded by phospholipids which go through the membrane
Functions: serve as ion channels, membrane pumps, or receptors
21

INTEGRAL PROTEINS
23
PERIPHERAL PROTEINSProteins which
attach to the membrane
Predominately interact with integral proteins
Can attach by weak hydrogen bonds
1. interaction by an amphipathic α-helix parallel to the membrane plane (in-plane membrane helix) 2. interaction by a hydrophobic loop 3. interaction by a covalently bound membrane lipid (lipidation) 4. electrostatic or ionic interactions with membrane lipids (e.g.through a calcium ion)
24
PERIPHERAL PROTEINS
25
GLYCOPROTEINS
GLYCOPROTEINS found on the surface of the membrane
Serve as recognition sites for chemicals
Involved in cell to cell interactions
26
GLYCOLIPIDSBetween phospholipids
Face extracellular fluid and serve as “cell identifiers”
27
CHOLESTEROL
Involved in keeping membrane “fluid”
