Simple diffusion - molecule can move through the membrane on its own. Passive transport - some sort of transport protein is required. Integral membrane protein - general term for a class of proteins imbedded inside a membrane. Channel protein - a specific type of integral membrane protein that creates a hole/channel/pore in the membrane to allow highly selective molecules to pass. Channel - forms a space for the molecule to move through the membrane. Carrier - molecule binds to the carrier in order to be transported through the membrane. Primary active transport - pumps molecules against their diffusion gradient. What is it - process of converting chemical messenger into cellular response. Significance - in the abscence of a signal transduction pathway the cell cannot respond to the signal. Distinguish between a protein kinase and receptor tyrosine kinase. Protein kinase - general type of enzyme that transfers a phosphate group from atp to an amino acid residue within a protein.
