Salt - - ↳ Most cells require a moderate level of salt ↳Some cells can exist in very high salt concentrations (holophiles) > The habitat of halophiles: highly saline water - S Often contain red to orange pigments (protect them from intense solar energy) -> Oxygen availability -> ↳ Require energy for growth -> Aerobic ↳ Require lack of oxygen growth - - Important for metabolism Anaerobic -- Nutrient availability ↳Most microorganisms require organic and inorganic nutrients to grow and survive ↳ Cyanobacteria grow in the absence of key nutrients ↳ Inorganic compounds from the atmosphere THE EVOLUTION OF LIFE ON EARTH cells evolved to learn how to use the oxygen for ↳Bacterial their purposes cells to make it not toxic Take the characters from the oxygen to help develop energy Origin of life o discovering cill 3 what combines · cleus e 0 · O Prefer less aggressive environments I so - -1 Contain a chemical called peptidoglycan 3 > - Both have a outer cell membrane and a cell wall lacks -> Metabolisms are D very different - Archaea cells and bacteria are similar in the morphology archaea - Both are extremophiles Like to thrive in extremely salty cold or acidic environments Similar metabolisms (Archaea and Eukayrotes) -> All based on DNA sequencing of a ribosomal RNA ARCHAEA be found in extreme environments ↳ Can such as high salt rich with methane and also hot in acidic places • BASIC EVOLUTION PRINCIPLE - if you adapt to new environment, you are going to be the only one that will be able to live there,they take advantage that no one else would like to live there - archaea are prokaryotes • thermoacidophiles swamps, digestive • methanogens -> Wetlands, systems of women • Halophiles - Extremely high salt concentrations exivents When t wo levels of temperature are mixed together, organisms are going to live there -> Further away from the hot springs, the temperature is going to be reduced and other organisms will be able to live there YEAST • a fungi, eukaryotic unicellular organism E • most commonly used in the food industry -

Making the LIPID BILAYER ↳ Inside the cell the ↳ membrane can divide into subcellular compartments which are called organelles All the endoplasmic reticulum and all the other membranebound are using the same principle -Water can interact through the negative charge of the oxygen with the positive part of the head and wise versa -Hydrophilic because there is a lot water ↳Hydrophobic does not interact with water -

↳ The long "tall" is non polar and hydrophobic - repelled by water -The hydrophobic portion of t wo molecules or more tend to associate with each other ↳ Lipohilic (lipid-lover) hydrophobic bonds -> three different powers to stabilize the phospholipid bilayer VESICLE 7 - all the movement of by vessicles proteins are - When using the vesicle from the outside, it can be fused with the ↳ plasma membrane and the drug inside can be moved inside the stool to the inside of the cell Naturally vesicles are formed in the cell all the time to help move chemicals outside or inside of the cell ↳ It is pocket made of membrane that is separated from the cytoplasm of the cell carrier of molecule in and out of the cell without crossing the ↳ Amembrane directly but the fusion actually puts whatever in the vesicle on the other side of the membrane THE PLASMA MEMBRANE A FLEXIBLE BARRIER ↳ Bilayers of the naturally occurring phospholipids are flexible jelly-like fluids, not solids ↳ ↳ fluidity of bottle lipid yellowish type is critical for its function of material TRANSMEMBRANE PROTEINS ↳ Transport proteins ↳) Signal transduction ↳) received react signals accordingly AEx: cancer cells know how to use these abilities, know how to take advantage of these cells and signals, phospholia ter Her2 receptor - - in ↳Scientists discover that they can block this receptor by an antibody, biological Drug, which is actually antibodies in this drug is called erceptine ↳Antibodies combined to the receptor specifically and when the ligand is there to interact with this receptor -the antibodies are going to block the ligand from interacting with a receptor and instead send a bad message to the cell replicate HYDROPHOBIC BONDS -cancer cells are going to be highly confused, and what cells are doing when they are highly confused you is kill themselves ↳cells that have this abnormity to kill themselves simply because the drugs make them confused ↳both proteins and lipids as well, able to diffuse laterally throughout the membrane again H CROSSING THE MEMBRANE * nee TRANSPORT OF SMALL MOLECULES ⑤ Plasma membrane is a physical boundary bet ween highly organized insides of the cell and the chaotic external environment exchange menallower enamt interplay surroundings an so where around free and the the jail exchange the the forms it , of like is that between the cell wall the locks cytoplasm the environment everything not barrier a molecules external ↳ membrane plasma locked is THE CELL MEMBRANE T ↳ the cell maintained because the is selective is ↳ specific passage the cell permeable small of molecules control the plasma membrane molecules small proteins transport to to carrier across mediate the selective the composition of membrane , Its allowing cytoplasm THE PLASMA MEMBRANE AS A STABLE MEMBRANE ↳>Plasma membrane forms a stable barrier bet ween t wo polar (watery) compartments -

Three sodium ions bond to the cytoplasmic side of the protein, causing the protein to change its confirmation and it’s new confirmation. The molecule because phosphorylated at the expense of a molecule of ATP the phosphorylation, and uses a second confirmational change that has located three sodium ions across a membrane. In this conformation, the protein has a little affinity for sodium ions and the three bound sodium ions dissociates from the protein and diffuse to the extra cellular fluid. The new conformation has a high affinity for potassium ions, t wo of which bind to the extracellular side of the protein, the bound phosphate now associates and the protein reverts to its original confirmation exposing the t wo potassium ions to the cytoplasm on the inside of the cell. This confirmation has a little affinity for potassium ions so the t wo bound potassium ions dissociate from the protein and diffuse into the interior of the cell. LINK BETWEEN ACTIVE AND PASSIVE TRANSPORT -> associated with mitochondria -> ->High glycolysis concentration of hydrogens is mediating by active transport and then the high concentration of hydrogen is going to drive a motor and this is by passive transport ↳ making ATP ENDOCYTOSIS AND EXOCYTOSIS ↳The substances taken in by single-celled organisms are often particles or large polar molecules that cannot cross the hydrophobic plasma membrane - Many single-celled eukaryotes employ endocytosis to ingest such food particles. ↳ In this process the plasma membrane extends out ward and surrounds the food particle. ↳Cells use three major types of endocytosis ↳phagocytosis, pinocytosis, and receptor-mediated endocytosis. ↳ If the material the cell takes in is particulate such as a bacterium or a fragment of organic matter the process is called phagocytosis If the material of the cell takes in is liquid it is called pinocytosis. Specific molecules such as low density lipoproteins ldl are often transported into eukaryotic cells through receptor-mediated endocytosis ↳ Molecules to be transported first bind to specific receptors on the plasma membrane ↳The interior portion of the receptor protein is embedded in the membrane. The protein clathrin coats the inside of the membrane in the area of the pit. -When an appropriate collection of molecules gathers in the coated pit the pit deepens and seals off to form a coated vesicle which carries the molecules into the cell. Exocytosis is the reverse of endocytosis. This process results in the discharge of material from vesicles at the cell surface to the outside of the cell E E -> receptors on the Specific molecules surface of the cell bind to E The uptake of bacteria by phageocytes is an active process which requires the triggering of specific receptors on the phagocyte FC receptors which bind antibody-coated bacteria are one of the receptors capable of triggering phagocytosis Binding of the aggregated antibody molecules to fc receptors on the phagocyte causes the cell to engulf the bacterium the phagocyte First produces pseudopods or ruffles that surround the bacterium and then fuse trapping the bacterium within what is now an intracellular vesicle The phagosome within the phagocyte lysosomes fuse with the phagosome delivering their enzymatic contents to degrade the engulfed bacterium. ORGANELLES AND PROTEINS SORTING mean ORGANELLES ↳] Eukaryotic cells are highly organized with many functional units THE ORIGIN OF MITOCHONDRIA S All bacteria that was able to enter the cell like billion years ago ( ↳ ↳ (I are cell bacterial organelles originated have that from energy-conversion mechanisms chloroplasts -> Is an organelle and genome ↳circular -> every its to own genome similar similar with size the its own ribosome ribosome bacterial ribosome ↳ Used for translation mitochondrial -> of products They are the descendants of some bacteria which was endocytosed by larger cell but not digested - Have many similarities to bacterial cell: • similar size/shape to prokaryotic cells • double membrane • circular DNA • genes without introns antibiotics • small ribosomes ↳ Generally, likely to be a bacterial cell that enter the Iarge cell before nucleus or after nucleus -> Is -> symblotic effect In 1981, Len margulis proposed that current eukaryotic cells evolved from a grouping of cells a large anaerobic prokaryotic predatory cell likely engulfed an aerobic bacterium. The bacterium becomes surrounded by a vacuole made of the predator cell membrane. The predatory cell is unable to digest the bacterium which persists in the cytoplasm of its host. The combination was mutually beneficial to both organisms over time the t wo cells became dependent on each other and the engulfed aerobic bacteria evolved into mitochondria. The predatory cell may also have met and engulfed a photosynthetic bacterium the photosynthetic bacterium also becomes surrounded by a vacuole made of the predator cell membrane and the predatory cell is unable to digest the bacterium. Over time the t wo cells became dependent on each other and the engulfed aerobic bacteria evolved into chloroplasts. ↳ cell's to does DNA code proteins needed to is and the genes the for ↳ This have not create new necessary mitochondria chloroplasts -> Involved with: ⑧ ATP production - cellular respiration ⑤ Apoptosis programmed cell death THE FUNCTION OF MITOCHONDRIA IN ATP PRODUCTION ↳ Involved with releasing the energy of food molecules This energy is expressed as a proton gradient EThe inner membrane contains a complex of enzymes which are transforming the energy in the proton gradient into chemical energy stored in ATP RNA for -> usuy used 17 generated the At inner membrane of - released for oxidative by energy mtochondria called also Phosphorylation as a synthesis deoxyribose mitochondria -> * to make ATP , environments) ↳ outer ↳ system Inner + high ↳ pumps energ protons is (two needed chemical membrane concentration using -> NAD H-> - organelle an from gradient electrons/ nutrients from matrix to Inter [] +04[] membrane space First stage- make gradients of motions of hydrogens ->Second stage - use this gradient in order to make ATP ↳ Mitochondria using energy from food gives the energy for active transport of hydrogen ions proteins by hydrogen pumps Y gradient drive the rotation activity of the ATP -> ATP production synthetase -> -> uses the high concentration of my drogen ↳ remains Inside ↳s ↳ membrane activating ATP inner ADP+ P1 = ATP -> transmitted by egys THE HUMAN MITOCHONDRIAL DNA (m+DNA) (HON) -> Leber's Hereditary Optic Neuropathy NUCLEUS bound uner men brane of -7 -The largest organelle nucleus ->DNA is packed into chromosomes ->The nucleus membrane allows gene expression to be regulated by postranscriptional mechanisms , such as splicing SORTING AND TARGETING OF PROTEINS ↳Pores in the nuclear envelope allow the import of particles containing mrna and proteins into the cytosol free ribosomes translate the mrna molecules into protein some of these proteins will reside in the cytosol others will associate with specialized cytosolic proteins and be imported into mitochondria or other organelles the synthesis of cell secreted and integral membrane proteins is initiated by free ribosomes which then duct to protein translocators ↳at the surface of the endoplasmic reticulum nascent proteins pass through an aqueous pore in the translocator ↳cell secreted proteins accumulate in the lumen of the endoplasmic reticulum while integral membrane proteins become embedded in the endoplasmic reticulum membrane -proteins are transported from the endoplasmic reticulum to the golgi apparatus by vesicles traveling along the microtubules so ribosomes found in t wo locations in the cell ↳ FROM THE ENDOPLASMIC RETICULUM TO THE GOLGI APPARATUS -> vessicles from : carriers the ER to of molecules the 6016I in the cells APPARATUS e . y .

Production of altered penicillin binding proteins can still cross link the peptidoglycan layers of the cell wall but have a reduced affinity for beta-lactamase antibiotics thus rendering the bacteria resistant to the effects.
