BSC 2023 Lecture Notes - Lecture 14: Cell Membrane, Pinocytosis, Endosymbiont
Document Summary
Fermentation anaerobic process that enables nadh to pass of its hydrogen and electrons to pyruvate. Converts pyruvate to lactate and yields 2 atp. A portion of the plasma membrane invaginates to envelope a substance or fluids. Receptor mediated endocytosis form of endocytosis that utilizes a membrane protein receptor to concentrate specific molecules of interest, When vesicles within the cell fuse with the plasma membrane during secretion. Contents of a cell between the nucleus and plasma membrane , consists of cytosol fluid, and organelles. Cytoskeleton maintains cell shape, anchors organelles, and used in cell motility. Microtubules long hollow protein cylinders present in cytoplasm, cilia, and flagella, used as tracks for organelle movement microfilaments protein fibers that move organelles and the cell intermediate filaments protein fibers that provide support and strength, molecular motors. Centriole short cylinders of microtubules, divides and organizes spindle fibers during mitosis and meiosis. Centrosome a pair of centriole that functions as microtubule organization center.
