Describe the contribution of each of the following to establishing and maintaining membrane potential: (a) the Na+K+ pump, (b) passive movement of K+ across the membrane, (c) passive movement of Na+ across the membrane, and (d) the large intracellular anions.
The rate at which the Na+K+ pump operates is not constant but is controlled by a combined effect of changes in ICF Na+ concentration and ECF K+ concentration. Do you think the changes in both ICF Na+ and ECF K+ concentration following a series of action potentials in a neuron would accelerate, slow down, or have no effect on the Na+K+ pumps in this cell?
difference between channels and transporters is that O Only channels allow for the passage of solutes against their electrochemical gradient. OTransporters allow for a greater rate of transport across a membrane than channels do. O Only channels allow for the transport of ions. Transporters must undergo a conformational change upon binding to the solute.
For most neurons, the extracellular concentration of chloride ions (Cl-) is 108 mM, whilethe intracellular concentration of Cl- is 5 mM.If the plasma membrane becomes more permeable to Cl-, would there be Clinflux or Cl- efflux at an RMP of -70 mV? Why?
"Transporters saturate at high concentrations of the transported molecule when all their binding sites are occupied; channels, on the other hand, do not bind the ions they transport and thus the flux of ions through a channel does not saturate." is true or false.
The Na+/glucose cotransporter in ION-GRADIENT-DRIVEN ACTIVE TRANSPORT, ________moves down its gradient and _______ against its gradient. Na+/K+ Na+/Na+ Na+/glucose glucose/glucose
The high affinity ion binding site on P-class pumps is on side of the membrane where the ion is in low concentration. True False
Ion transporters are “linked” together—not physi-cally, but as a consequence of their actions. For example,cells can raise their intracellular pH, when it becomes tooacidic, by exchanging external Na+ for internal H+, usinga Na+–H+ antiporter. The change in internal Na+ is thenredressed using the Na+-K+ pump.A. Can these two transporters, operating together,normalize both the H+ and the Na+ concentrations insidethe cell?B. Does the linked action of these two pumps causeimbalances in either the K+ concentration or the mem-brane potential? Why or why not?
One of the systems of diabetes of mellitus (sugar diabetes) is extreme thirst. What brings about this thirst? Explain in term of osmosis.
The Na+/glucose Cotransporter The active transport of glucose is mediated by the Na+/glucose cotransporter. This is a symporter; that is, both the sodium ion and the glucose molecule are passing through the membrane in the same direction: sodium DOWN its gradient of about 140 mM outside to 10 mM inside while glucose is going UP its gradient (0.005 mM -> 5 mM) T=37oC and Vm = -70 mV CALCULATE THE ΔGin for Na+ (show work) – and is this enough energy to move glucose in? Or do you need to move 2 Na+ in for each glucose co-transported in? Explain
a skeletal muscle cell has depleted its stores of ATP how will the altered transport properties of the NKA transporter affect cytosolic calcium concentrations (increase, decrease, no change) relative to normal? Why?
