4.1.2??Transport of molecules across cell membranes

? Transport proteins play a critical part in solute movement because membranes constitute a barrier to free diffusion of molecules. If membranes allowed rapid diffusion of both ions and water, gradients of ions would be slight and osmotic pressure could only be achieved with enormous energy consumption. Instead, some molecules, such as water and gases, move rapidly across membranes. Unrestricte...

Insulin and the Transport of Sugars Across Cell Membranes

The material to be discussed here represents a departure from the usual investigations of active transport across cell membranes, in that it deals with organic molecules that are not ionized and are not normally present within the mammalian organism. The data obtained do bear on the subject of transport of glucose across cell membranes. The experiments derive from the postulate of Levine (1) th...

Transport of small molecules across cell membranes: water channels and urea transporters.

How do small hydrophilic nonelectrolytes cross cell membranes? Which pathways are most important for small lipid insoluble molecules to cross cell membranes? These are questions that have been basic to membrane transport physiology for decades. More importantly, these are questions whose answers have changed significantly within the last 10 years. This review discusses the evidence that pathway...

Kinetics of chloride transport across fish red blood cell membranes

The continuous flow tube method was used to investigate the kinetics of chloride transport, and its potential oxygenation-dependency, in red blood cells (RBCs) from four teleost fish species and man. A significant interspecific variation in Cl- transport kinetics was found. At 15 °C, the rate constant k for unidirectional 36Cl- efflux was significantly lower in RBCs from eel and carp than i...

Kinetics of amino acid transport across bone marrow cell membranes.

Dog bone marrow nucleated cells were incubated in media containing labeled L-amino acids, and the cellular accumulation of radioactivity as a function of time was measured and analyzed according to a three-compartment model.(a) The turnover half-time of intracellular histidine arising from extracellular sources was 6.0 +/-0.7 (SEM) min. Similar turnover half-time for serine was 10 +/-2 (SEM) mi...
