O Membrane curvature may be controlled by the size of head groups in lipids O Lipids can move laterally within a membrane leaflet O Liposomes are synthesized membrane structures used to study membranes in the laboratory Flexion is when the hydrophobic tails of lipids swing and cross each other O Lipids flip-flop from the inner leaflet to the outer leaflet spontaneously.

The membrane ispermeable to water and to the simple sugars glucose and fructosebut impermeable to the disaccharide sucrose.(a) Draw solid arrows to indicate the net movement of solutesinto and/or out of the cell.(b) Is the solution outside the cell isotonic, hypotonic, orhypertonic?(c) Draw a dashed arrow to show the net osmosis, if any.

Arrange the fatty acids starting from which fatty acid will produce the least rigid bilayer going to the fatty acid that will produce the most rigid bilayer. • 14:0 • 12:0 • 22:0 • 18:0 O 12:0 < 18:0 < 14:0 < 22:0 O 14:0 < 12:0 < 22:0 < 18:0 O 22:0 < 18:0 < 14:0 < 12:0 O 12:0 < 14:0 < 18:0 < 22:0What is the role of lysozyme and a low ionic strength extraction buffer?

- A phospholipid can be used to do all the following except O Increase the fluidity with the presence of unsaturated fatty acid tails. create a bi-layer membrane using amphipathic properties. form a micelle using a single layer and a hydrophobic core. O connect to a glycerol molecule to create a triacylglyceride.Liposomes have long been investigated as drug delivery mechanisms in humans and animals, but only recently have they started to be used clinically in targeted cancer therapies and now, vaccines. Liposomes are simply vesicles with a phospholipid bilayer that contain an inner aqueous compartment. Hydrophilic compounds could be carried in the buffer inside the liposome or hydrophobic drugs within the membrane itself. For instance, the Moderna and Pfizer mRNA vaccines actually use liposome technology to deliver the SARS-CoV-2 spike mRNA to human cells. The liposomes fuse with the plasma membrane allowing the contents of the liposome to enter the cytosol of cells. Of course, once the mRNA is in the cytosol is can be translated to protein on a ribosome. Explain why nucleic acid won’t get through the plasma membrane on its own. Discuss the energetic restrictions to movement through the membraneWhich of the following statements about the membrane bilayer is FALSE? ccarbohydrate moieties are found on the outer leaflet O glycerophospholipids can move from one layer to the other the composition of glycerophospholipids varies between inner and outer leaflets the outer layer is more negatively charged one side of the bilayer often has more of specific glycerophospholipid than the other layer
