Study Notes
Origin of Life. Basic Functions and Constituents of Cells
- During evolution, a eukaryotic organism equipped with a cytoskeleton and internal membrane systems engulfed/phagocytosed a prokaryotic organism, leading to a mutually beneficial relationship.
- Mitochondria originated when an aerobic prokaryote performing oxidative phosphorylation was internalized; chloroplasts came from prokaryotes performing photosynthesis; peroxisomes have a similar origin.
- Genetic information flows unidirectionally: DNA → RNA → protein → property (phenotype).
- Transcription occurs in the nucleus where DNA's genetic information is copied into a single-stranded RNA molecule via RNA polymerase, marking the first step in gene expression.
- Exons are coding sequences of genes that form part or all of a gene product, separated by non-coding sequences called introns in eukaryotes.
- During transcription in eukaryotes, introns get transcribed as messenger RNAs, and are cut out from the transcript before translation.
- Introns are nucleotide sequences in a gene that do not participate in encoding the protein product; in eukaryotes, introns are transcribed but removed before translation.
- RNA maturation involves post-transcriptional modifications in eukaryotic cells, converting primary transcript RNA into mature RNA in the nucleus; this includes 5' end capping, 3' poly-adenylation, and RNA splicing.
- RNA splicing, a post-transcriptional process, removes introns and covalently joins exons to form the mature messenger RNA, and allows a single gene to code for multiple proteins.
- Translation occurs in the cytoplasm where a polypeptide chain is synthesized from an mRNA molecule containing genetic information.
- In the cytoplasm, the ribosome reads mRNA bases as triplets.
- The genetic code defines the relationship between base triplets and amino acids in the polypeptide.
- Heterotrophs are organisms which synthesize ATP by degrading organic material, and all animals, protozoans, fungi, and most bacteria are heterotrophs.
- Autotrophs use sunlight or simple oxidative processes as energy sources to produce ATP: plants and certain bacteria are autotrophic. -Prokaryotes are cells without a nucleus, where the genetic material is in the cell plasma , bacteria and cyanobacteria are considered prokaryotes.
- Eukaryotes are living organisms with a separated nucleus, internal membrane system, and cytoskeleton; most organisms including unicellular eukaryotes, plants, animals, and fungi belong to this group.
- Primary biogenic elements (C, H, O, N, P) make up 98% of cells, and they form the bulk of organic matter and water.
- Secondary biogenic elements which include S, Fe, Cl, Na, K, and Ca make up about 2% of cells.
- Organic substances, formed by joining several carbon atoms, include carbohydrates, fats, and proteins.
- Amino acids contain amino and carboxyl groups; proteins of most living cells are built from 20 different a-amino acids.
- Deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA), the hereditary material, is constructed of two polynucleotide chains forming a double helix which are bound by hydrogen between complementary bases.
- DNA's role stores information, transmitting it to daughter cells, and indirectly controlling protein synthesis.
- Ribonucleic acid (RNA) is a polymer of ribonucleotide units, with ribose sugar and adenine, cytosine, guanine, and uracil bases.
- The major RNA types are messenger RNA (mRNA), transfer RNA (tRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and small nuclear RNA (snRNA).
- Messenger RNAs (mRNAs) transmit genetic information from DNA to proteins.
- Ribosomal RNAs (rRNAs), with ribosomal proteins, build ribosomes.
- Transfer RNAs (tRNAs) transport amino acids to ribosomes for translation.
- Small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs) are involved in mRNA splicing.
- Small interfering RNAs (siRNAs) and microRNAs (miRNAs) regulate gene expression.
- Some viruses have genomes composed of RNA.
- Cytoplasm fills the cells where metabolic processes occur, characterizing all cells.
Cell Membrane, Intracellular Compartmentalization
- Lipids are organic compounds that are soluble in apolar solvents that include neutral fats and phosopholipids.
- Amphipathic molecules contain apolar and polar moieties.
- Amphipathic molecules in water form a micelle.
- Polar molecules have unequal charge distribution and readily interact with water (hydrophilic).
- Apolar molecules do not undergo charge separation and do not significantly interact with water.
- Cell cortex is a three-dimensional protein network on the intracellular side of the cell membrane: composed of actin filaments, actin-binding proteins, and spectrin dimers in some cells; maintains membrane integrity, determines cell shape/motility, and regulates membrane proteins functions.
- Disruption of the cell cortex structure can lead to pathological conditions.
- Glycocalyx is a viscous coating layer on the extracellular side of the cell membrane and composed of carbohydrates, it plays a role in cell surface protection, adhesion and signal transduction.
- The glycocalyx can help immune cells differentiate between self and non-self cells or help pathogens enter cells.
- Asymmetry in the lipid bilayer occurs, and the lipid composition of the outer and inner layers is different, which affects membrane curvature and cell shape.
- Scramblases facilitate random lipid shuffling, while flippases and floppases are active, specific transporters.
- Lipid rafts are cholesterol-, glyco- and sphingolipid-rich domains in the cell membrane that have lower fluditiy which assemble/segregate proteins to regulate signal transduction processes.
- Signalosomes are supramolecular protein complexes regulated by protein-protein interactions, the compositon changes dynamically in space and time which ensures specificity of signal transduction.
- Endoplasmic reticulum (ER) is an intracellular membrane system in the cytoplasm located near the nuecleas, the surface of the rough ER binds ribosomes which transport proetie that need to end up on the membrane.
- The smooth ER lacks ribosomes and handles metabolic reactions and detoxification.
- Golgi complex is composed of stacked cisternae, having a polarized organization which modifies proteins from the ER, sorting and shipping them..
- Lysosomes are membrane-bound organelles containing acid hydrolases for intracellular degradation.
- Peroxisomes are membrane-bound organelles that use enzymes to decompose substances, and nuetralizes hydrogen-peroxide by converting it to H2O.
- Storage diseases arise from lysosomal dysfunction due to inherited mutations.
Passive Transport Processes
- A lipid-water partition coefficient characterizes hydrophobic character and measures a molecule's concentration in lipid versus water phases.
- Passive transport is material flow through biological membranes that doesn't require cellular energy, driven by concentration and electric potential differences.
- Facilitated diffusion uses specific proteins to transfer substances through biological membranes without direct energy input.
- Glucose uniport is a type of facilitated transport that does not require ATP and transports glucose down the concentration gradient.
- Ion channel gating is when the appropriate trigger causes a conformational change in the protein which makes it transition among different conducting and non-conducting states.
- Ion channel selectivity is when the passage of one or some ion species is allowed through the pore.
- Voltage sensors respond to changes in membrane potential by conformational changes in the pore.
- Gap junctions serve as non-selective channels connecting neighboring cells, allowing small molecules passage and contributing to electric synapses.
Active Transport Processes. ABC Proteins, SLC Proteins
- Active transport uses energy from ATP hydrolysis or ion flow to transport molecules against their concentration gradients.
- Secondary active transporters use the electrochemical potential difference of an ion for transport. E.g. glucose-Na+ symport, amino-acid-Na+ symport
- The Na+/glucose symporter transports 2 Na⁺ and one glucose molecules into the cells.
- V-type transporters transport protons into membrane enclosed organelles.
- P-type transporters gets phosphorylated transiently and the change in conformation can create ion gradients.
- ABC proteins bind and hydrolyze ATP and forms substrate binding sites which transport substrates across membranes.

- RVD (Regulatory volume decrease) mechanism is induced by cell swelling in hypotonic medium and which reduces the cell volume
- RVI (Regulatory volume increase) mechanism is induced by cell shrinkage in hypertonic medium and which increases the cell volume.
- Steady-state pH of the cytosol is at the rate of base efflux
- Na+/H+ antiport mediates the influx of Na⁺ and the efflux of H⁺ function is the regulation of the cytosolic pH.
- Cl-/HCO3- antiport mediates the influx of 1 Cl- into, and the efflux of 1 HCO3 during one duty cycle.
