1 Chem Lecture 8 Lipids and Cell Membranes Part 3 Question of the Day: What role do proteins play in biological membranes? Form vs. Function The membrane lipids give form to the cell membranes The membrane proteins provide the function 2 Membrane proteins function as Pumps (Chapter 13) Channels (Chapter 13) Signal transducers (Chapter 14) Energy transducers (Chapter 18 & 19) 3 Different membranes contain different proteins. They can visualized using SDS-Polyacrylamide electrophoresis. (Chapter 3, pp.71-75) 4

2 Different membranes contain different proteins 5 Different membranes contain different proteins RBC plasma membrane retinal rod cell photoreceptor membrane muscle cell sarcoplasmic membrane 6 Proteins can associate with membranes in different ways. 7 Proteins can associate with membranes in different ways. We will look a three different examples Bacteriorhodopsin (pump) Porin (channel) Prostaglandin H 2 synthase-1 (enzyme) 8

3 Archaeal Bacteriorhodopsin (Pump) Uses light energy to transport ions across the membrane. 9 Bacteriorhodopsin (7 -helical bundle) There are 7 non-polar stretches of amino-acids. 10 Bacteriorhodopsin (7 -helical bundle) There are 7 non-polar stretches of amino-acids. 10 Bacteriorhodopsin (7 -helical bundle) There are 7 non-polar stretches of amino-acids. 10

4 Hydropathy plots are used to look for membrane spanning -helicies Glycophorin 11 Hydropathy plots are used to look for membrane spanning -helicies Determining Transfer Energies Glycophorin 11 Hydropathy plots are used to look for membrane spanning -helicies Glycophorin 11 Hydropathy plots are used to look for membrane spanning -helicies Glycophorin 12

5 Porin (Channel) 13 Porin (Channel) 13 Porin (Channel) 13 Porin (Channel) 13

6 Porin (Channel) 13 Porin (Channel) Sequence alternates between polar and non-polar amino acid residues 14 Porin (Channel) Sequence alternates between polar and non-polar amino acid residues 15 Porin (Channel) Sequence alternates between polar and non-polar amino acid residues 15

7 Porin (Channel) Sequence alternates between polar and non-polar amino acid residues 15 Prostaglandin H 2 synthase-1 catalase (Enzyme) 16 Prostaglandin H 2 synthase-1 catalase (Enzyme) Promotes inflammation and modulates gastric acid secretion 16 Prostaglandin H 2 synthase-1 (Enzyme) 17

8 Prostaglandin H 2 synthase-1 catalase (Enzyme) 18 Prostaglandin H 2 synthase-1 (Enzyme) Inhibited by COX inhibitors (NSAID) 19 Peripheral proteins are often have hydrophobic lipids attached to them. 20 Lateral Diffusion in membranes can have a wide range of values. 21

9 Lateral Diffusion in membranes can have a wide range of values. S = (4Dt) 1/2 21 Lateral Diffusion in membranes can have a wide range of values. 21 Transverse diffusion is very slow. 22 Fluid Mosaic Model of Singer and Nicolson (1972). 23
