Cytology 

Cell membrane. 

Verónica Allue y Aurora Susín.

Page 2: Citología

Definition:

 

Membrane that surrounds a cell and controls the movement of substances

Page 3: Citología

 Composition:

Biological molecules, lipids and proteins.  Mechanisms of incorporation:• Exocytosis• Endocytosis• Tubular structures• Exchange between lipids and aqueous phases.

Page 4: Citología

Lipids:

 Amphipathic lipids:

• Phospholipids• Glycolipids• Cholesterols

Page 5: Citología

Phospholipids

   A major component of a cell membrane. 

Page 6: Citología

    They have a carbohydrate attached. They provide energy.

 

Glycolipids

Page 7: Citología

  Cholesterol    Cholesterol is the principal sterol synthesized bye animals. Structural component.

Proteins

• Proteins in the membrane: integral and peripheral. • Transmembrane proteins.

Page 9: Citología

Structure.

• Unit membrane model. 3-layed-structure. 

Page 10: Citología

• Fluid mosaic model.

               Two-dimensional liquid.

Function

•  Selective permeability  • Transport• Receive signals• Specialized junctions• Cell recognition• Cytoskeletal anchoraje
