endomembrane system Semi-autonomous organelles Protein sorting to organelles Systems biology of cells Cell Biology & Cell Theory Cell biology: The study of individual cells and their interactions. Cell Theory (Schleiden & Schwann, with contributions from Virchow): All living organisms are composed of one or more cells. Cells are the smallest units of life. New cells arise only from pre-existing cells through division (e.g., binary fission). Origins of Life: Four Overlapping Stages Stage 1: Formation of Organic Molecules Primitive Earth conditions favored spontaneous organic molecule formation. Hypotheses on the origin of organic molecules: Reducing Atmosphere Hypothesis: Earth's early atmosphere (rich in water vapor) facilitated molecule formation. Stanley Miller’s experiment simulated early conditions, producing amino acids and sugars. Extraterrestrial Hypothesis: Organic carbon (amino acids, nucleic acid bases) may have come from meteorites. Debate exists over survival after intense heating. Deep-Sea Vent Hypothesis: Molecules formed in the temperature gradient between hot vent water & cold ocean water. Supported by experimental evidence. Alkaline hydrothermal vents may have created pH gradients that allowed organic molecule formation. Stage 2: Formation of Polymers Early belief: Prebiotic synthesis of polymers was unlikely in aqueous solutions (water competes with polymerization). Experimental evidence: Clay surfaces facilitated the formation of nucleic acid polymers and polysaccharides. Stage 3: Formation of Boundaries Protobionts: Aggregates of prebiotically produced molecules enclosed by membranes. Characteristics of a protobiont: Boundary separating the internal & external environments. Polymers with information (e.g., genetic material, metabolic instructions). Catalytic functions (enzymatic activities). Self-replication. Liposomes: Vesicles surrounded by lipid bilayers. Can enclose RNA and divide. Stage 4: RNA World Hypothesis RNA was likely the first macromolecule in protobionts due to its ability to: Store information. Self-replicate. Catalyze reactions (ribozymes). Chemical Selection & Evolution: RNA mutations allowed faster replication & self-sufficient nucleotide synthesis. Eventually, RNA world was replaced by the DNA-RNA-protein world due to: DNA providing more stable information storage. Proteins offering greater catalytic efficiency and specialized functions. Microscopy Microscopy Parameters Resolution: Ability to distinguish two adjacent objects. Contrast: Difference between structures (enhanced by special dyes). Magnification: Ratio of image size to actual size. Types of Microscopes Light Microscope: Uses light; resolution = 0.2 micrometers. Electron Microscope: Uses electron beams; resolution = 2 nanometers (100x better than light microscopes). Light Microscopy Subtypes Bright Field: Standard; light passes directly through. Phase Contrast: Amplifies differences in light phase shifts. Differential Interference Contrast (DIC): Enhances contrast for internal structures. Electron Microscopy Subtypes Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM): Thin slices stained with heavy metals. Some electrons scatter while others pass through to create an image. Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM): Heavy metal-coated sample. Electron beam scans the surface, producing 3D images. Cell Structure & Function Determined by matter, energy, organization, and information. Genome: The complete set of genetic material. Prokaryotic vs. Eukaryotic Cells Feature Prokaryotic Cells Eukaryotic Cells Nucleus ❌ Absent ✅ Present Membrane-bound organelles ❌ None ✅ Yes Size Small (1-10 µm) Large (10-100 µm) Examples Bacteria, Archaea Plants, Animals, Fungi, Protists Prokaryotic Cell Structure Plasma Membrane: Lipid bilayer barrier.

Flagella: Movement. Pili: Attachment. Eukaryotic Cell Structure Nucleus: Contains DNA & controls cell functions. Organelles: Rough ER: Protein synthesis & sorting. Smooth ER: Lipid synthesis, detoxification. Golgi Apparatus: Protein modification & sorting. Mitochondria: ATP production (Powerhouse of the Cell™). Lysosomes: Digestive enzymes for breakdown & recycling. Peroxisomes: Breakdown of harmful substances. Cytoskeleton: Provides structure (microtubules, actin filaments, intermediate filaments). Plasma Membrane: Regulates transport & signaling. Endomembrane System Includes: Nucleus, ER, Golgi apparatus, lysosomes, vacuoles, and plasma membrane. Nuclear Envelope: Double membrane structure. Nuclear pores allow molecule transport. Golgi Apparatus: Modifies & sorts proteins/lipids. Packages proteins into vesicles for secretion (exocytosis). Lysosomes: Contain acid hydrolases for macromolecule breakdown. Perform autophagy (organelle recycling). Semi-Autonomous Organelles Mitochondria Function: ATP production (cellular respiration). Structure: Outer & inner membrane (inner folds = cristae for increased surface area). Mitochondrial matrix houses metabolic enzymes. Chloroplasts (Plants & Algae) Function: Photosynthesis (light energy → chemical energy). Structure: Outer & inner membrane. Thylakoid membrane (site of photosynthesis). Contains chlorophyll. Endosymbiosis Theory Mitochondria & chloroplasts evolved from free-living bacteria that were engulfed by an ancestral eukaryotic cell. Protein Sorting & Cell Organization Co-translational sorting: Proteins destined for ER, Golgi, lysosomes, vacuoles, or secretion. Post-translational sorting: Proteins sent to nucleus, mitochondria, chloroplasts, peroxisomes. Systems Biology Studies how cellular components interact to form a functional system

Membrane Bound Organelles and Eukaryotic Cell Features

Concept 7.2 Glycolysis harvests chemical energy by oxidizing glucose to pyruvate There are 2 important roles of glycolysis! 1. To produce energy molecules for the cell to use in its life processes. 2. To produce pyruvate, which can feed the citric acid cycle in the mitochondria of eukaryotes and the cytosol of prokaryotes and ultimately into the electron transport chain where most of the ATP in cellular respiration is produced. o In glycolysis (which occurs in the cytosol of all cells with or without oxygen), the degradation of glucose begins as it is broken down into 2 pyruvate molecules. The six-carbon glucose molecule is split into 2 three-carbon sugars through a long series of enzymatically controlled steps. o In the course of glycolysis, there is an ATP-consuming phase Energy Investment) and an ATP-producing phase (Energy Payoff). In the investment phase, 2 molecules of ATP are consumed which helps destabilize glucose and make it more reactive. Later in the payoff phase 4 ATP molecules are produced resulting in a net gain of 2 ATP molecules during glycolysis. In addition to a net gain of 2 ATP molecules 2 NADH s are produced which will be utilized later in the electron transport system. o Most of the potential energy of the glucose molecule remains in the two produced pyruvate molecules. If oxygen is present these molecules will be further degraded during the "grooming of pyruvate" (pyruvate oxidation) and the citric acid cycle. • It is important to note that the staring material for the Citric Acid Cycle is produced during glycolysis!!!! EVOLUTION CONNECTION It is presently theorized that glycolysis was the first ATP-producing metabolic pathway to evolve. There are 3 convincing reasons as to why this theory is probably true! 1. Long ago, Earth's atmosphere contained almost no oxygen, and only relatively recently have the current atmospheric levels of gases come to be what they are. Glycolysis does not require oxygen, so it is possible that prokaryotes (which evolved before eukaryotes) used this method for making ATP. 1. Glycolysis is a very common method for making ATP; in fact, almost all living organisms use it. This commonality implies that it originated very early in the evolution of metabolic pathways. 2. Glycolysis takes place in the cytosol of all cells not in an organelle Prokaryotic cells, which evolved first, are much simpler than eukaryotic cells, and they contain no membrane-bound organelles. Therefore, if glycolysis were to take place in an early prokaryotic cell, it would have to evolve such that it was capable of taking place in the cytosol-for instance, it would have to evolve such that it did not rely on a specialized membrane in order to function.
