Movement of Molecules Across Membranes Sue Keirstead, Ph.D. Assistant Professor Dept. Integrative Biology and Physiology Stem Cell Institute 612 626 2290 [email protected] Movement of Molecules Across Membranes - Learning Objectives 1. List the chemical characteristics of molecules that are most likely to move by simple diffusion across the lipid bilayer of the plasma membrane and explain why. Explain the factors that Fick’s Law tells us determine the rate of diffusion through the lipid bilayer. 2. Explain why ions do not move through ion channels by only simple diffusion, whereas water does move through water channels by simple diffusion. Specifically, what, in addition to the concentration gradient, affects the movement of ions through ion channels? 3. Compare and contrast the ways in which channels and carrier proteins facilitate movement of ions across the plasma membrane. Consider specificity, energy requirements, mechanism of movement of solute, and saturation. 4. Differentiate the following processes based on 1) the necessity for and 2) source of energy driving the process and 3) the molecular pathway for: simple diffusion through the lipid bilayer, facilitated diffusion by carrier proteins, secondary active transport, and primary active transport. 5. Define saturation and explain how and why the transport of a molecule by a saturable mechanism such as facilitated diffusion by carrier proteins will differ from simple diffusion through the lipid bilayer. Draw a graph showing the rate of solute movement versus extracellular concentration for the two processes (see Figures 5.6 & 5.10). 6. Understand how a cell could be modified to increase or decrease the maximal rate of transport across the plasma membrane by carrier-mediated mechanisms (e.g. upregulation). Draw a second line on the graph in LO 5 to show the rate of transport after upregulation of the carrier proteins. 7. Describe how the distribution of proteins on the luminal (apical) and basolateral membranes of an intestinal epithelial cell permits the transcellular transport of glucose, sodium, and water from the lumen of the intestine to the interstitial fluid (see Figure 5.25). Consider the movement of glucose across the apical and basolateral membranes after a meal versus after a long night’s sleep (i.e. fasting).
