10 Cytoplasmic Membrane

11 Cytoplasmic Membrane - Function 1. Permeability Barrier Prevents leakage and functions as a gateway for transport of nutrients into and out of the cell 2. Protein Anchor Site of many proteins involved in transport, bioenergetics, and chemotaxis 3. Energy Conservation Site of generation and use of the proton motive force

12 Cytoplasmic Membrane Even for water, specific transport proteins (aquaporins) are needed in certain cases.

13 Rate of solute entry Transport and transport systems Transporters versus diffusion Transporter saturated with substrate Transport Simple diffusion Characteristics of Transport Proteins: 1. Saturation effect; 2. High specificity; 3. Tightly regulated External concentration of solute

14 Transport and transport systems Simple transport: Driven by the energy in the proton motive force Out In Phosphoanhydride Phosphate ester Ribose Transported substance Group translocation: Chemical modification of the transported substance driven by phosphoenolpyruvate 1 ABC transporter: Periplasmic binding proteins are involved and energy comes from ATP 2 3 Phosphates Adenosine TriPhosphate (ATP) Adenine The three classes of membrane transport systems all require energy in some form, usually proton motive force or ATP
