Plasma Membrane What is it? What is it made of? What is its function? THE FLUID MOSAIC MODEL Outside of cell Inside of cell (cytoplasm) Lipid Bilayer Proteins Transport Protein Phospholipids Carbohydrate chains Structure of the Cell Membrane Go to Section: Animations of membrane structure Membrane structure A membrane is a fluid mosaic of lipids, proteins and carbohydrate. A membrane is a fluid mosaic: The membrane is a mosaic of protein molecules bobbing in a fluid bilayer of phospholipids. Proteins Membrane movement animation Polar heads love water dissolve. Non-polar tails hide from water. Carbohydrate cell markers Fluid Mosaic Model of the cell membrane A membrane is held in together by weak hydrophobic interactions. HOW DOES THE MEMBRANE MOVE? Fig. 8.4a Most membrane lipids and some proteins can drift laterally within the membrane Molecules rarely flip transversely (flip-flop) across the membrane, because hydrophilic parts would have to cross the membrane’s hydrophobic core. About Cell Membranes All cells have a cell membrane Functions: Controls what enters and exits the cell to maintain an internal balance called homeostasis Provides protection and support for the cell TEM picture of a real cell membrane. Structure of cell membrane Lipid Bilayer -2 layers of phospholipids Phosphate head is polar (water loving) Fatty acid tails non-polar (water fearing) Proteins embedded in membrane About Cell Membranes (continued) Phospholipid Lipid Bilayer 4. Cell membranes have pores (holes) in it Selectively permeable: Allows some molecules in and keeps other molecules out The structure helps it be selective! About Cell Membranes (continued) Pores A membrane is a mosaic of different proteins embedded and dispersed in the phospholipid bilayer. These proteins vary in both structure and function, and they occur in two spatial arrangements: Membranes are mosaics of structure and function 1- Integral proteins 2- Peripheral proteins TYPE OF INTEGRAL PROTEINS:in
