Study Notes
Membrane Transport
- Membrane transport refers to the regulation of the passage of solutes through biological membranes.
- Biological membranes separate substances of distinct chemical nature due to their selective membrane permeability.
- Lipid bilayers mediate the movements of most solutes through the membrane.
- There are specific transport proteins for each cell type and for every specific physiological stage.
- The regulation of transport proteins is controlled at the genetic-molecular level.
- Membrane transport proteins are not specialized in the transport of specific molecules.
Corrections
- It is not true that the regulation of transport proteins is only controlled at the genetic-molecular level.
- Selective membrane permeability does play a role in the regulation of passage through the membrane.
- The differential expression of transport proteins is not only regulated at the genetic-molecular level.
- Membrane transport proteins do mediate the movements of solutes through the membrane.
- The cell membrane does regulate the transport of materials entering and exiting the cell.
