free energy change in movements ions across cell membrane has two components :
1. Concentration Change (Concentration Gradient)
2. charge differences across the membrane (membrane potential)
The (Na+ – K+ )–ATPase pump, pumps 3 Na+ out of and 2 K+ into the cell in with hydrolysis of ATP. T overall 3 Na+ (in) + 2 K+ (out) + ATP + H2O →3 Na+ (out) + 2 K+ (in) + ADP + Pi
Answer for this question is last one : z(k+) F
(a) RT ln ((Na+ (out))3 / (Na+ (in))3 ) ; conc. of sodium ion is 9-folds outside so it gives rise to large +ve value of free energy.
(b) RT ln ((K+ (in))2 / (K+ (out))2 ) ; conc. of Kion is 20-folds inside so it also gives rise to large +ve value of free energy.
(c) z(Na+) F , since cell is polarized with negative inside, here movement of ions is inside to outside ; = (out)-(in) = +ve, it also gives rise to +ve value of free energy.
(d)z(k+) F , since cell is polarized with negative inside, here movement of ions is outside from inside ; = (in)-(out) = -ve, thus it will give rise to -ve value of free energy ; thus thiis component contributes to more spontaneous G.
Consider the transport of Naº and K across the cell membrane by the NaK ATPase. A...
In considering active transport by Na+-K+-ATPase, 3 Na+ are pumped out of the cell and 2 K+ are pumped in for each ATP that is hydrolyzed to ADP + Pi. Given a ΔG for ATP hydrolysis of -10 kcal/mol, and that V is -60 mV (more electronegative inside), and that the pump typically maintains the internal Na+ at 10mM, external Na+ at 145 mM, internal K+ at 140 mM and external K+ at 5mM, what is the efficiency of the...
Question 33 2.5 pts The Na+-K+ ATPase transporter found in the plasma membrane of most animal cells gets its energy from: ATP hydrolysis The electrochemical gradient across the membrane O Co-transport of H+ into the cell None are correct, this transporter functions by facilitated diffusion All are correct
Na^+/K^+ ATPase (sodium potassum adenosine triphosphatase) is found in the plasma membrane and catalyzes the exchange of sodium and potassium ions across the membrane. Sort the following statements about the transport system as either true or false.
Considering that the Nat-K+ ATPase membrane protein is essential for maintaining an electrochemical gradient across cell membranes, which of the following is likely not a component of an electrolyte solution for treating dehydration? Choose one: O Ο Α. ΑΤΡ B. potassium o C. glucose • D. sodium
The function of Na+K+ ATPase in a cell membrane of cultured cells is being investigated. The cell is then supplied with an analog of ATP (ATV, adenosine tri canada the) this binds to the protein but there is no hydrolysis. What would be the affect of this drug on the transporter
Given these parameters, what is the AG for K ion transport into the frog muscle cell in the presence of Ach? Dr. Knowsalot smiles and nods. "Good," she says. "Now let's see whether K+ ions pass through the open Ach receptors into the cell. As you might remember, these channels are permeable to Na+, K+, and Ca2+. For a typical frog muscle cell, the concentration of K+ is roughly 124 mM inside the cell and 2.30 mM outside the cell."...
What would most likely happen if the Na+K+ Pump (ATPase) stopped functioning in the cell? A. The cell would swell by taking up water. B. The cell would shrink by pumping out water. C. The inside of the cell would be more negative. D. Nothing would happen to the cell.
Lo 10: Electrochemical Gradient The difference in voltage across the membrane is called the __________________________________. The inside of a normal cell is ___________________ (+/-); while the outside is ___________(+/-). The resting membrane potential of a neuron is ___________mV. Diagram the relative ratios of Ca++, Na+ and K+ in a cell under resting conditions. Draw an arrow for each of the molecules indicating which direction would be passive transport (into or out of the cell). For each of the following sentences, fill in...
Q2. The Na+/K+ pump and voltage gated K+ channels both transport K+ across the membrane. A) Compare and contrast these two mechanisms for K+ transport indicating important functional and structural differences. B) Describe the process for putting a voltage gated K+ channel in the membrane starting at the ribosome and ending at the plasma membrane.
Consider a uniport system where a carrier protein transports an uncharged substance A across a cell membrane. Suppose that at a certain ratio of [A]_inside to [A]_outside, the delta G for the transport of substance A from outside the cell to the inside, A_outside rightarrow A_inside, is 11.1 kJ/mol at 25 degree C. What is the ratio of the concentration of substance A inside the cell to the concentration outside? [A]_inside/[A]_outside = Choose the true statement about the transport of...
