Document Summary

Ecm proteins also interact with cell surface receptors. Intercellular interaction - exchange of materials and information with neighbouring cells can adhere or form junctions. Rbc only have lipid components; spread the lipids out over water - measured twice as much as predicted plasma membrane is a lipid bilayer polar groups interact with water, hydrophobic interact with each other - hydrophobic interactions. Davson & danielli, 1935 proteins are in the lipid bilayer solutes from the outside can be brought into the cell through channels. Fluid: individual lipid molecules can move within the bilayer: mosaic: proteins are located within the lipid layers in certain regions. Components are mobile and interact dynamically if its not dynamic, it cannot allow the cell to respond to messages from the outside. Short sugar chains are found on lipids and proteins- glycoproteins, glycolipids di erent popilation of lipids on inner compared to the outer - asymmetric distribution.
