Phospholipids
Fatty acid
Phosphate• Phosphate head – hydrophilic
• Fatty acid tails– hydrophobic
• Arranged as a bilayer

Cell membrane defines cell• Cell membrane separates cell from aqueous
environment– Thin = 8nm thick
• Controls transport in & out of the cell– Some substances cross more easily than others• hydrophobic (nonpolar) vs. hydrophilic (polar) • Small vs. big.

Cell membrane must be more than lipids…
• In 1972, S.J. Singer & G. Nicolson proposed that membrane proteins are inserted into the phospholipid bilayer
It’s like a fluid…It’s like a mosaic…
It’s the Fluid Mosaic Model!

Permeability to polar molecules?• Membrane becomes semi-permeable via
protein channels – specific channels allow specific material across

Cell membrane is more than lipids…• Transmembrane proteins embedded in
phospholipid bilayer–create semi-permeable channels

molecule to build structures in the cell membrane?

Protein domains anchor molecule• Within membrane– nonpolar amino acids • hydrophobic • anchors protein
into membrane• On outer surfaces of
membrane in fluid– polar amino acids • hydrophilic• extend into
extracellular fluid & into cytosol

Membrane Proteins• Proteins determine membrane’s specific functions– Every membrane in a cell has a unique collection of proteins
• Classes of membrane proteins:– peripheral proteins
• loosely bound to surface of membrane• ex: cell surface identity marker (antigens)
– integral proteins • penetrate lipid bilayer, across whole membrane • “transmembrane” protein• ex: transport proteins
– channels, permeases (pumps)

Membrane carbohydrates • Play a key role in cell-cell recognition– ability of a cell to distinguish one cell from
another• antigens
– important in organ & tissue development
– basis for rejection of foreign cells by immune system
