Cards

Term
2 classes of membrane proteins
Definition
transporters
channels- are faster
Term
transporters
Definition
have moving arts to transport specific molecules across membrane
Term
chanels
Definition
narrow hydrophyllic pores
Term
passive transport
Definition
downhill
solute flows through Chanel proteins
Term
active transport
Definition
pump against electrochemical gradient
Term
3 types of active transporters
Definition
coupled transporters
atp driven-
light driven-
Term
uniporters
Definition
single solute
Term
symport
antiport
Definition
2 solutes same direction
2 solutes opposite direction
Term
Na conc. is ___ extracellularly
Definition
higher
Term
ATP driven pumps
Definition
P-TYPE- phosphorylate themselves
- set and maintain gradient of Na, Ca, K,H
F TYPE-multiple subunits
- in plasma of bacteria and inner membrane of mito. & thylakoid
ABC TRANSPORTERS- pump small molecule (esp. in bacteria- both direction and eukaryotic-pump out of the cytosol)
Term
Ca pump
Definition
P-TYPE ATPase
Ca- low in cytosol
high extracellularly
Term
for every ATP hydrolyzed
Definition
3 Na are pumped out
2K pumped in
Term
hypotonic
Definition
conc. of solute less
water goes in cell- cell bursts
Term
hypertonic
Definition
shrink
Term
depolarization
Definition
Na
Term
REpolarization
Definition
K
Term
refractory period - 2 types
Definition
absolute- absolute nothing can change
channels are inactive
period of insensitivity
RELATIVE- if stimulus intensity increases we can get a response.
hyper polarization phase
Term
summation
Definition
- is integration of information
- how various stimulus can cometogether
-spatial and temporal
Term
Super-threshold stimulus
Definition
crosses the threshold
leads to an action potential
Term
sub-threshold stimulus
Definition
will not lead to cross the threshold
no action potential
slight change in membrane potential but returns
Term
schwann cells
Definition
neurons of PNS
Term
OLIGODENDRITES
Definition
CNS
Term
Nodes of Ranvie
Definition
ACT. Potential is propogated
no mylenation
Term
optic disc
Definition
convergent of many neurons/ blind spot
Term
Na is a passive transport
Definition
true
Term
glucose
Definition
active transport(going against coc. gradient)
Term
transcellular transport
Definition
lumen epithelium
glucose from lumen goes to ex. fluid
by Na glucose SYMPORTER
out of the cell by passive movement
Term
TIGHT JCT.
Definition
prevents solutes from crossing the epithelium
serve as diffusion barriers
Term
gating of ion channels
Definition
MECHANICALLY GATED- have cytoplasmic extension
LIGAND- extra. or intercell.
- some other molecule binds
VOLTAGE- dep. on membrane potential
Term
ABC TRANSPORTER OF BACTERIA
Definition
78 GENES code for ABC trans. ~5% of e. coli genome
A-ATPase of ABC
B-binding protein
C- channel
Term
multi drug resistance protein
Definition
is an ABC
kicks the drugs out
expressed in 40% of all cancer cells
