Na+(--)H+ exchanger
H+ is directly transported out of the cell and Na+ into the cell
-
Na+(--)driven Cl-(--)HCO3- exchanger
influx of NaHCO3 to an efflux of HCl
-
four types of ATP-driven pumps
- P-type
- F-type
- V-type
- ABC-type
-
P-type pump
ions, uses atp, phosphorylates itself
-
F-type pump
called ATP synthases; bacteria, mitochondria, chloroplasts;
-
V-type pump
only pump H+; found in lysosomes, vesicles, and vacuoles
-
ABC pump
small molecules only, not ions
-

low in cytosol, high in extracellular space
-
concentration of K+ in cells
high in cytosol, low in extracellular space
-
concentration of Na+ in cells
low in cytosol, high in extracellular space
-
P-type pump examples

-
three mechanisms for intracellular trafficking of proteins
- gated
- transmembrane
- vesicular
-
gated transport
cytosol to nucleus
-
transmembrane transport
- cytosol to:
- mitochondria
- ER
- plastids
- peroxisomes
-
vesicular transport
ER to golgi mainly
-
GTPase-activating protein (GAP)
found in cytosol; RanGTP->RanGDP
-
Guanine exchange factor (GEF)
found in nucleus; RanGDP->RanGTP
-
GTPase Ran
required for nucleur import and export
-
ER roles
- lipid and protein biosynthesis
- intracellular Ca2+ store for signaling responses
-
microsomes
when the ER breaks and forms small, enclosed, authentic versions of ERs still capable of regular ER functions
-
two types of proteins captured by ER
- transmembrane proteins partly translocated across ER and embedded in it
- water-soluble proteins fully translocated across membrane and released in lumen
-
protein disulfide isomerase (PDI)
caralyzes the oxidation o ree SH groups to form disulfide bonds
-
S-S bond location
extracellular spaces, rarely in cytosol
-
BiP
- pulls proteins post-translationally into ER
- recognizes incorrectly folded proteins
-
precursor oligosaccharide composition
- asparagine side chain (N-linked)
- 2 N-acetylglucosamine
- 9 mannose
- 3 glucose
-
dolichol
holds precursor oligosaccharide in ER membrane; transfers chain to target asparagine
-
oligosaccharyl transferase
drives the reaction of precursor oligosaccharide to the asparagine; found with every translocator
-
oligosaccharide assembly
2 N-acetylglucosamines and 3 mannoses on cytosolic side, flips to lumen, then rest of the sugars added
-
calnexin and calreticulin
binds to incompletely folded proteins containing one terminal glucose
-
glucosyl transferase
detects if the protein is folded properly, if not adds a glucose so it can rebind to calnexin
-
pathways of unfolded protein response
-
pathway 1 of unfolded protein response
- signal need for more er chaperones by activating a kinase
- kinase turns into endoribonuclease
- endoribonuclease removes RNA intron
- two exons ligated to form active mRNA
- mRNA translated to make gene regulatory protein
- gene regulatory protein enters nucleus and activated gene encoding ER chaperones
- chaperones made in ER, help fold proteins

lipid made primarily in the ER; occurs exclusively in the cytosolic leaflet
-
scramblase

-
Hsp70
acts early; bind to hydrophobic patches; hydrolyzes ATP
-
Hsp60
barrel-shaped; acts after protein has been fully synthesized;
-
proteasome
degrades proteins; recognizes ubiquitin chains;
